    Problem is with adjusters on the front, you need 2.5" springs.

    That's the thing, I need a front setup only too, once I told the GC sales guy I had TC Kline coil overs in the rear he immediately said "Oh deff can't sell you the fronts"
    WTF ? Guess they have their reasons as stupid as it may be.

    I'm interested for sure, have a track event Jan 18th, just ordered 24" MT bias ply for the fronts. Currently have J stock springs in the front w/23" tires need some weight transfer to the back.
    Shoot me a PM or email.


    Do you have any pics of your cars bay? I'd really like to see your turbo setup.

    Fortune auto could set you up with something for sure. Custom valving/spring rates and camber plates.

    Spring rates.... depending on length
    7" length start at around 275lbs
    8" length start at around 150lbs

    started a topic Front coilover set up for drag racing

    Front coilover set up for drag racing

    Guys where can I buy a coil over conversion just for the front?
    Car is used for drag racing and currently have TC Kline 1000# coil overs in the rear with J stock springs in the front.
    Need stock ride height w/adjustment with a soft spring like 150# rate. Is there such a spring rate for coil overs?
