Default '89 Turbo Suspension Question

It is common knowledge that the '88 Turbo S has an adjustable front suspension. My question for '89 owners is, is the suspension on the '89 Turbo adjustable as well?

The 88 S and the 89 are the same set up. In 88 the S was an option and both the S and regular 944 turbo were available. In 89 the turbo only came in the S style so there was no need to have a special S identifier on it.

BTW – the 88 turbo S / 89 turbo suspension is also very similar to the M030 option on the S2 and 968….

Thanks for all of the replies. I think that I was under the impression that the M030 suspension was virtually the same as the '88 Turbo S setup but did not have the threaded collars.

Think there is an option (M471?) that has koni adjustable shocks but fixed height springs,
