86 GXL suspension/brakes swap

Ok, so my plan currently for my FC is to get the Suspension/brakes and basically the whole everything underneath swaped from my Turbo II parts car, to my GXL. I noticed the TII seems lower, with 16" rims (stock ones) on it. But what exactly are the specs for it. Normaly the high-end cars are heavier, since they got power options and what not, but I also want the 5 lug set-up instead of the 4. I need to know if the brake rotors are bigger, or if there is a differance in calipers, also the spings and shocks. Anything helps, i'm just trying to learn more, and figure this out the cheapest way possible lol.

s4 GXL should already be 5 lug with 4 piston brakes. same **** as the t2.

t2 drivetrain is stronger. swap that over.
