What are the Dimensions of stock Coupe Front spring's?

And what's a good spring Rate for A powered sedan that may hopefully see the odd track day?

Pre'Thank's,


Connor.

We are on sticky road tyres and found 225 pound springs are good on road and for track work. Contact me if you need a part number for the springs. Don't forget your strut insert as good shocks are as important as springs.
Cheers

150 - 175lbs for street duties with a comfort ride, 200-225lbs for street duties with a sports ride, 250 -275lbs for the track. If you are going down the coil over route, I would go with the 65mm ID springs as they seem to be the most common these days. [in Australia that is]
I run 63mm [2.5"] springs and find it a little hard at times to find the parts im after at a competitive price.

Hi Rock
Go To repco pedders etc and get them to get KDFL57-225 king springs (lowered 1200 springs 225pound compression.Poundage can be varied by varying last number ). Can't remember price ($225 I Think).Remember to add good shocks into the equation to complement the springs.
Cheers
Bob
