Default help! gsr intake springs are shorter

iv noticed by side by side comparisons that my gsr intake springs are shorter than my itr intake springs .
The only conclusion i found is that the itrs havent been compressed yet. they are new. The gsr intake springs are used. help anyone?tia

should be .006 on the intake and .007 on the exhaust. not 100% sure but this should work just fine.

Do you have JDM gsr springs?. if you do they are a little shorter.

the valve adjustment is .006MM intake and .007 Exh. thats what i run and you can not hear any valve lash under the hood. (most people dont adjust right thats why their car clicks bad)

when i installed my Skunk2 springs they were very short compared to the gsr exh. springs. called skunk and they said that the springs were fin and you just put them in and install the rest of your valve train.

the spring being taller should not matter it is just the diff. in spring rates.

also when you adjust the valves it wont matter keeping the same adjustments cause you adjusting it to the hight or the spring. thats the only thing that matters. the springs will work out
