Default Tokico Springs only

Anyone running Tokico springs only? These are the springs that come with D-spec shocks.

Anyone know the drop and rates? Plan to use them with stock shocks for now till i can buy aftermarket shocks...

Get the full kit. Its only 500 bucks. Its a nice kit. I wish it didnt drop so low though. The handling is good for the price, and the dials actually change dampening rate and you can feel it.

i would buy the entire kit, where did you see it for $500? Usually ends up being around $750+ with shipping.

Plus i'm on s-techs and plan on trading with someone for the Tokico springs

I agree with the comment to just get the D-spec shock and spring kit that comes with the springs. Here are the specs you asked for.

Tokico D-spec 350Z shock & spring package DSK512 drop1"/1.5"
Spring rates 375/375 Linear Springs

Here's the best price that I know of for the kit

They also happen to be the only place that will sell you just the springs alone.

They have a link where you can buy Tokico HP's with the D-spec springs, Tokico doesn't offer HP's with those springs for a reason, ignor.

I am running the springs with stock struts, I love the handling and the linear springs. The ride is very harsh and I want to go with the D-spec struts very soon to even everything out.
