Who sells linear rate springs? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I'm trying to find a nice stiff set of linear rate springs. I heard that Suspension Techniques made springs for the 240sx that are linear, but I'm not exactly sure.

If anyone has more information on Suspension Techniques or knows of any other manufacturer that sells linear rate springs, plz let me know.

Eibach ERS springs are linear rate, and there are lots of applications available.  These are the same springs used in the Ground Control coilover sleeve package.

ahh much thanks. I'll look into those springs.

Hmm... from what I've read so far, I think the Eibach ERS Springs will only work on a coilover system. Are there any linear spring sets that will work without me having to get a coil-over system?

Okay, after wearing out my eyes browsing the net, I finally went to the S14 Spring Rates section of the zilvia.net site.

At the bottom, it says "HKS Super Sport Springs"
4.14 kg/mm Front
3.46 kg/mm Back

Those seem to be really good springs. Does anyone here happen to own and/or know anything good or bad about them? I'm guessing they're linear because only single rates were given for the front springs and back springs.
