Which year is the Ur-Q?  The later cars come from the factory 20mm lower
than the early cars so it definitely makes a difference where you're
starting from...

>different) the roll centre is up on the parcel shelf.

The results may be similar (though I tend to doubt it ... gotta measure mine
someday) but the Ur-Q and 5ktq have entirely different suspension designs up
front and in back.  Apples to oranges...
