    FYI: Sprint Spring rates inside!!!...

    F/R in #/in: 265/175, or ~4.6/3.4 kg/mm, so it's right in the league of all those super-drop JDM springs (Tein S. Tech, Tanabe DF210), etc. We should get a list of all the rates like they have for Civics.

            Here's some more:

            Neuspeed Sport:260 lb/in up front and 165 lb/in for the rear, 1.75"/1.5" drop
            Neuspeed Race:485 lb/in up front and 300 lb/in in the rear, 2.25" drop?
            Tein S-Tech: Front 246lbs/in Rear 162lbs/in, 2.1"/1.7" drop
            Suspension Techniques Speedtech:250lb/in linear/180lb/in progressive, 2.0"/1.8" drop.

            Keep 'em coming people...I think Tanabe's DF210s are basically the same as the S-Techs; all that's left now really are Eibachs and H&R's. I have a book that has some formulas on springs, so if anyone has any springs laying around that they can get some measurements on, I can see what happens when you cut them from an engineering standpoint. I know springs weren't designed to be cut, but honestly, one coil is not going to drop the car dramatically, make the spring bind immediately or raise the spring rate to unrideable levels. I'll put some forumlas up later.

                Just some quick info for you all ,if you are unhappy with your tein spring rates(I was) then you can order your coilovers with prelude springs. about 50 to 100 lbs. stiffer.
