They are not exact since Honda has never released the actual numbers. They did however release the numbers for the first year (99/00). Honda has also stated the differences in stiffness/softness in the springs by percentage when changes have been made. So after a few calculations from the given numbers and the percentage of difference between the years, you get the numbers I posted above.

Thanks! Interesting how they slowly tamed the S2K suspension from a rear bias to a front bias. Very interesting...

Also interesting, I can see why they haven't ever released that info. They didn't want the press saying what I just said.

To reduce snap oversteer and to make the car more forgiving to your everyday basic driver.
