looks to be IRS but if anyone wants to back me up or correct me, please do...
it looks alright from here, but what you need to do is jack it up, take a wheel off and have a look for yourself. what you're looking for is the coils at either end to be fairly tightly wound around the bumpstops. if they aren't and there looks to be a fair bit of room between the coil and the bumpstop then you might be in trouble.

I can pick a IRS VP-VS from about 100 meters away they stand out pretty good

i agree, but it might be easier to check to see if the springs have been cut if its jacked up with the wheel off. it's a bit hard to tell from the photo and i've seen a photo of the car - lowered with a kit makes it a bit harder to see one would assume...

no probs mate, if i can help someone with something like this it's a bonus. as i said, i dont think they'd be cut as they look like IRS springs and they would've fallen out by now, i would assume... let us know how you go

lol funny u mention the bodykit. i dunno if its because of that, or how low it looks, or cause i look 15 but ive neva seen so many cops in this town till i bought this car. B4 u would b lucky 2 c 1 cop car a week, ive seen 4 just 2day, n yesterday there were 10 undercover/unmarked cars parked in a dead end street, dnt think that was cause of me though

Well apart from them looking totally different when following them from behind (looking under it). The whole stance of the car is different thanks to the rear camber
