90N is NOT 9kg. N/mm can be converted to kg/mm by dividing N/mm by the gravitational constant: 9.80665

In this example, 90N/mm = 9.18kg/mm

How about adding Swift springs to the lowering spring chart? 270f/314r, -1.4f/-0.8r (Values are per Swift website. Standard and MR springs have the same rate and drop).

Could also add Works drop springs for the MR too. I haven't found the rate, but the claimed drop is 0.9" front and rear.

just bought some new Evo 9 Tein SS coilovers.

f 390 r 340

drop is up to -56mm on the front, and up to -41mm on the rear. Assuming you have no pillowball tops.
if you have Tein pillow ball tops you'll get less total adjustment to the tune of about 10-11mm.

Looking forward to this mod. The spring rates are exactly what I was looking for, as well as the adjustable range. Very nice. Tein gear is very successful over in Australia, its very streetable yet seems great for track too.

Sorry I know you already have Tein SS on your list but the figures are ever so slightly different and this is for Evo 9 if you ever make a spring rate chart for that,

Cheers - oh and this thread ROCKS!!!!! Thanks guys.
