How can you just have some springs in your garage and not know what they are for? Do you have that many cars or do that many mods in your garage that you forget what parts are for what? I'm not trying to be a smart *** I'm just saying.

yep, ive had 4 gsr's in the past and this type r so when i find a part i really have to think to figure out what car it goes too. especially when it may be an oem part.

Not really helpful now, but for the future, try and label the parts you take off your cars so later on you don't have to make another thread like this.

where do you get your 20% number? do you have any helpful info to back up this statement?

yes i did take the stock springs off itr, but i also took stock springs off my gsr, thought of that already


thanks for trying everyone but it seems like nobody who has posted thus far has any real information that is going to help me determine what kind of springs these really are, if you dont know, dont waste your/my time posting coments that dont help answer my question, if you have an answer to my question, post, if not, dont, its that simple. im not trying to be an *** but those of you who have posted so far havent had one solid answer to my question.

Do the springs have any paint markings on them?
I mention this because there have been threads identifying ITR springs in the past by these blue/red markings (what they I are I don't remember other than to say it was 3-4 "marks" on each spring).

My bad, gray/blue/purple = ITR

The rear's look like GS-R springs. Linear with thin wire diameter. Definitely not ITR rear springs, and the front's have a smidge of green paint....not ITR either.

GSR only because stock type r parts are plated in gold.
