hey Kamax, do some research on lowering springs stiffness rate. my don't know about how stiff these megan springs are.
I have tanabe df210, pretty low drop. and i wouldn't want to go any stiffer. order from stiff-stiffer, tanabe df210, tanabe gf210, and tien s springs. tien are really stiff from i've heard sorta like coilovers.... -------------------- Group buy to replicate Narrow E series transaxle parts

QUOTE (Megan Racing) Megan Racing springs are made with "SAE 9254," the strongest material from Japan. Our new material will offer a stronger product that is lightweight and corrosion-protected with its phosphate and powder coatings. The result is a spring that specifically offers racecar handling, yet maintains smooth and comfortable ride characteristics. Carefully matched springs rates provide exceptional handling, response, control and balance. Springs lower approximately 2" Front & 1.75" Rear. The lowered center of gravity improves performance and increases stability, as well as enhancing the appearance of the vehicle. Spec: - Color: Orange - Lower rate: 2" Front, 1.75-2" Rear - Springs rate: 300F & 250R - MSRP: $149 rates r what I'm looking for, but that's just my personal preference/goal. I'll check Ground Control rates, but then again, you can request spring rates for little to no extra charge. EDIT: When you order G.C.'s you request your rates, or you can just tell them what kinda driving you do. Ground Control springs for 94-99 Celica This post has been edited by rj8807: Apr 5, 2009 - 11:15 AM -------------------- 95 Celica ST (currently in Motorsport Purgatory)
