Help!I need a Sunny circuit car guru to help me with choosing front coils for standard struts.
Before anyone suggests King Springs,i have already...sought thier advice,spent up big,only to find that what they supplied is way too soft and not low enough by about 50mm....all in all about as usefull as an ash tray on a Harley!
I look forward to your opinions

Cheers Bert Edit. Almost forgot,theres a CA up front

I'm not Sunny circuit car guru by any stretch of the imagination, but I'd suggest Gemini coils for the front. In my old 1200 I used them with the variable rate part cut off. I had to wire them in though. Its a cheap option to try at least, to see if it works for you.

I've also used them in a mate's 240Z with very good results.

you would need to cut the 200b springs down a bit as they are progressive, and longer than 1200 ones

with the softer bit of the spring cut off they are pretty firm, not as firm as the gemini/corrona ones but a fair whack stiffer than stock sunny ones
