Spring Rate Chart for Evo X
#16
Stance changed their spring rate on GR+ from 10k/10k to 10k/9k, just FYI
Chris, are you still liking your Eibachs compared to stock? Any plans on going to a coilover setup? Any loss of performance or bouncing with that initial softer spring rate? Thanks again for the great info.

I believe I found the rear spring rate for the X MR here: http://sccaforums.com/forums/thread/333415.aspx (post 339863?)
So, that would be ~2.86-3.84 (rear)
Maybe someone wants to double check & add to the OP?
Of course we rated the OEM rear springs (some goofy tapered/progressive Eibach spring). It was variable rate 160-215 #/in...

Hiboost, could you also add to your list the various adjustability levels to each coilover design, ie; Single adjustable (rebond only), Single dual adjustable (compression and rebound adjusted together with one knob), Dual (compression and rebound adjusted independently), Triple (compression high and low and rebound)

For roads in decent condition they are actually slightly softer riding than stock or the same. If you visit extreme pot holes or speed bumps you will definitely feel the stiffer side of them though. The progressive nature of them means they really only have higher than stock springs rates when doing extreme cornering or hitting sharp bumps in the road.

Hi I have EVO X GSR, And I want to change springs, Which Springs do you hugest me?
We have really bad roads here and i just want to feel little bet more sporty but not lowering down so much, So which one should i go with?
Cobb ........................... 3.8 kg* .......... 3.1 - 4.1 kg* ........ 1.3" / 1.4"
Eibach Pro ................ 2.6 - 4.9 kg ...... 1.8 - 4.8 kg .......... 1.2" / 1.0"
Swift Sport Mach ...... 2.7 - 4.3 kg ...... 2.3 - 4.4 kg .......... 1.0" / 0.6"

Good morning everyone, I read through the whole thread but I'm still unclear as to why some lowering springs for example:
Works .9" .................... 3.8 kg* .......... 3.2 - 4.3 kg* ........ 0.9" / 0.9"
have a broad range (3.2 - 4.3 kg*) of rate? How come it's not a set rate like the front for instance?

The Eibach coilover springsrates seem to be off according to GTWorx and his add in the vendor section.
Unless ofcourse, GTworx is offering their own rates.
EDIT:
I called Eibach to ask about their ProStreet coilover setup and the front spring rate is 350 and the rear has NOT been developed yet.

I guess we will have to wait for final stats.

Ok I spent some time doing a bit more research and found a good 5-6 more coilover setups available for the Evo X. If anyone knows of others including the high end setups feel free to post or PM me the details and I'll update the list. Some of the stats are still foggy such as height adjustment range and damping adjustments type but it should still give you a good start on what setups are out there.
