Tanabe spring help.
Ok, to make a long story short...I have R-1 coilovers (yes, i know, cheap-o) and I have KYB AGX struts. From sitting for months and months, the struts are now pooh. The car bounces like hell. 'Cept for the right rear. which is froze-up solid. So, here is my new plan:
Tanabe DF210 springs. Approx. 2-2.5" (50-60 mm) drop.
Spring rates: Front- 4.1 kg/mm (that is 9 lbs/ inch ?)
Rear - 3.0 kg/mm (that is 6.6 lbs/inch?)
Certain applications come with bump stopper. My question is, how the hell am I going to figure out a good shock that will compliment these springs ? Someone please lead me in the right direction or help me out. Thanks.
