Neil-NA Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Looking for some springs to put on some KYB AGX shocks and found that MVP do the Tanabe and Tein ones, both lower roughly the same but the tanabes are alot softer Tanabe F - 476 lb/in R - 235.2 lb/in. Tein F - 671 lbs/in R - 363 lbs/in The car is an NA with a bit of weight reduction, it will only ever be used on roads and at santapod, i do like to nail the nuts off it now and again, which would be best suited? Thanks Neil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil-NA Posted March 18, 2011 Author Share Posted March 18, 2011 Anyone recommend me any other springs to look at just so I don't make an expensive mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_jekyll Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 contact springcoil uk , they will make you springs to whatever spec you want. i use 14gkf on the front and 10 kgf on the rear, i ahve adjustable damping to help with setting up though. i have had a full tenebe suspension kit before, springs and dampers and i wasnt verry impressed with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr_jekyll Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 i found the best way to work out what spring rate to have was to.......ask chris wilson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Eibach for me (between those two, I'd go for the Tanabe though) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XIL007 Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 I have the tein ones and the ride is just a litle bit hard now and then but on the road they are usable no problem with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
