SPRINGS FOR AE86
EDIT: Lets make this the place to have a proper discussion about springs for our beloved cars. All about prings for non-adjustable setups.

So i have put together a little list, for all the options that i'm aware of (springrates, lowering, prices, availability):

Tanabe GF210 (F:-25mm _ 2.5kg/mm R:-18mm _ 2.7 kg/mm) (cheapest in USA cca 150$; in EU 200 eur+)
APEX (F:-30mm _ +30% R:-30mm _ +30%) (availible in EU cca 150 eur)
EIBACH Sportkit (F:-25mm _ +30% R:-33mm _ +30%) (availible in EU, price in USA cca 180-200 $)
INTRAX (F:-40mm _ +30% R:-40mm _ +30%) (availible in EU, price in USA cca 180-200$
MEGAN Racing (f:-46mm _ +30% r:-43mm _+30%) (availible in USA 120$)
ESPELIR Active Super Down (F:-40mm _ 3.0 kg/mm R:-30mm _ 2.8 kg/mm) (availible in japan 80 eur and on)
RS*R Ti2000 (F: -20-25mm _ 2.63 kg/mm R: -10-15mm _ 2.33 kg/mm) (availible in japan cca. 60 eur and on)

All prices are informative (from online shops and stuff). There are more options (Cobra, TRD ..), so if you know any other with specifications please add..

Your Experiences
Please share your experiences with any springs that you might have had . (but only for non-adjustable setups)

Pictures
Please paste pictures of your car on various springs (all for non adjustable). Measurements of rideheight are welcome naturally. Smile

If this turns out to be a good discussion, maybe we can make a tech faq about springs for the newcomers.

PS: Does anybody know the springrates of the stock/oem units?
