Here are the spring rates and lenghts for a 2.5" I.D. spring that Hypercoils currently offers. Special order springs in low quantites (like 10 pair) cost me more then ordering the spring from ground control. So basically you buy the springs and i'm giving away the adjusters.

4b0350 75.60
4b0400 75.60
4b0450 75.60
4b0500 75.60
4b0600 75.60
6b0600 81.00
6b0700 81.00
6b0800 81.00
6b0850 81.00
6b0900 81.00
6b1000 81.00
6b1100 81.00
6b1200 81.00
6b1300 81.00

in the first post you mention a 6" 450lb spring, is that a no go now?

i would be down for a 450 6" front and a 700 6" rear instead

Lots of people wanting stiffer rates,,,,

[einstein57]

I'm having hypercoil make 6" 450 and 4.5" 650 just for me. They will be bavarian blue instead of navy blue as well. But if they currently have something in their catalog that you like i can substitute it in. No custom substitutions as they would cost me more then buying an existing spring from eibach. I do however already have #300 6" springs, #600 6" springs and #475 7" springs. I'm running a 6" #600 in the rear with no adjuster for my daily driver. Puts it around h&r sport height.

[mtlbloodshot]

Will the 6" 450 and 4.5" 650 setup you're going for allow us to slam while keeping a stiff ride?

[5Toes]

Shots of rear collars, etc?

As soon as we get the all the pre orders or january. Which ever comes first.

I have too much on my plate right now, but if money isn't needed til Oct or so, I think I can do this. Too much good stuff!!

BTW, you guys wanting the stiffest springs do see that the 6" go up to 1300 spring rate, right?

[mRodiek]

Ill definately be one of those people bugging you about this at the carbeque lol

[einstein57]

I'll have a set on display.

[bloodshot-e30]

okay im completey lost on the spring rates :/ sumone school me... i kno ther 300 and 600 are close to the H&Rs but i feel like the front isnt stiff enough now, and i can finally launch without the rear rubbing with the H&Rs blah blah blah.... basically what im sayin is im not sure what rate i want lol

[einstein57]

Sounds like I need to look in to 6" 350 springs as well.

[bloodshot-e30]

^^^ lol i guess the 350 woul be a little stiffer up front and the difference might be my M52 instead of an M20 BUT i kno my cosmos i had were WAY too stiff for my current setup lol

[Brian D]

Sounds like I need to look in to 6" 350 springs as well.

If you're serious, I'd go for that in front, probably with a 600 6" in back. That would actually be a really nice combo, I'd think.
