Using Honda springs for coil overs

[Ivan141]

Having better ability to absorb road irregularities is never a bad thing. Hence the comment about 8kg/mm being a lot. These kinds of springrates are best saved for dedicated track cars with wings and big fat slicks.

I've driven a fairly smooth circuit on a 6/4 setup and it feels perfect in terms of balance. And you'd end up cutting less of those springs, so you wont get in a pinch with your travel. Just my 50c.

And indeed, the whole point of coilovers is being able to change over to whatever springrate floats your boat and be able to keep the spring captive. That and the ability to cornerweight your car off course.
