Default Suspension - magnetic shocks ZR1 vs Z06 (CFZ and Z07)

Searched for the answer to determine if the shocks on the Z06 (CFZ and Z07) are identical to the shocks on the ZR1 and didn't find anything.

Are the magnetic shocks and suspension the same on the Z06 (CFZ and Z07) as the ZR1?

Where I can find a detailed comparison of the two cars?

Mentioned in the January Road & Track that tested the Z06 Carbon against Porsche Turbo S, Audi R8, Aston Vantage, was that the MRC suspension was the same as the ZR1. They also gave a lot of credit to this suspension that the car behaved a lot better when pushed.

The drawback is that it adds weight over the standard Z06. Since the Carbon beat the above cars around Laguna Seca, I'd say it's worth it. They also gave credit to the wheel/tire combo and the carbon brakes.

Very good package! 2k
