    They're the same in this kit. Not much can be said for over all knowledge of their products application but, I can say that the springs I recieved are not super soft. They are much stiffer than the H&R's I have in the garage.

    Not GC's, but I knew that going into it.

          Is that progressive or linear? Just trying to add more info to the thread.

            Can someone with the "cabrio" springs please put a ruler next to them and post the lengths? I ordered coupe kit (shit soft springs) and want the stiff springs and am contemplating swapping them out with Les. He said lengths may be different. Also, when you ordered the stiff springs, what exactly did you tell him you wanted? Thanks.

              Good question. I'll contact Les here and ask.

              Shorter doesn't hurt my feelings really. Les contacted me via E-mail after I ordered to ask what model, I asked him if it mattered. He said not really, the Cabrio springs are simply stiffer. I said I have a coupe, but give me the stiffest springs as long as they work.

                I'd guess linear, judging by the spacing of the coils, and coilovers are typically linear

                  The spacing of the rear coils makes it look progressive to me. I put my 200lb gut on the vert springs and it compressed about the same amount as my eibachs (about a half inch). I have not tried compressing the couple springs yet to see the difference. I compared the part #'s on the shocks and they are the same for the coupe and the vert so there is no difference in valving.

                          I would guess the delay in shipping was the large amount of orders. I hope everything gets to you ASAP.
