Default Koni /GC H22 spring rate IS it enough


I have a 92 vx h22 lsd, i bought Koni sports and i just about to order GC, So is my spring rate choice going to be stiff enough in the (front), 400/500 rates. I know 500 is good for the rear. OR Should i get 450 in front??? Daily driver / drag track racing, and mountin runs.

this is actualy a tough question, being the h22 is a bit heavy, esp over a d series, i would say yes, up the spring rate to 450, or even 500.. but i'm not as educated in susspension as i want to be. I would say, contact ground control, the number is 530-677-8600, they should help with your setup

from all that i read when researching for s suspension for my h22 VX....i read that 500front/400rear was plenty

the aftermarket springs for the EG h22 swap range anywhere from 350front/200rear on up to 500front/400rear
the progress springs for that swap are 375/200

i ended up getting D2 coilovers with 9k/7k....aprox 500/400
