I'll have a set of ti2000 for sale in a week or 2. The rears are off the car now, but I'm waiting for a free weekend to uninstall the fronts.

I've only put about 5,000 miles on them myself, but I bought them used and honestly can't remember how many the previous owner said they had. It was under 20,000 so no more than 25K at the very most.

hey gokart, I called up RSR USA and they still don't have the 30-N200 in stock. Starting to think they never will Real shame since its one of the very few completely linear springs.

sorry, i didn't ask about the titanium ones, just the regular ones. Just keep in mind the titanium ones are progressive not linear.

I don't know where you heard that, but it's not true. I will have pics of my RSR ti2000 springs soon so you can see they are definitely linear. I wasn't able to find either type back in the summer when I was looking for them new, but I got lucky and found my set used on here.

no f-ing way, if these are linear that would be awesome. I'm going by what Gsedan35 (resident suspension expert on G35driver.com) reported way back when the ti version first became available for the platform and these are rare enough that I haven't seen pics to see if they are linear or not. If you can post pics to confirm, that'll make my day.


edit: I did some more searching right now and I'm leaning back to my original statement, I think the fronts are progressive on the Ti version. If you can get pics to disprove it though, would be nice.

I did a quick search myself and actually came across the FS thread on G35driver by the guy I bought them from.

http://g35driver.com/forums/steering...0-springs.html

The fronts do look like the coils are tighter towards the bottom, but not nearly as obvious a difference as the true progressive springs I've seen. I'm not really sure myself now, but they were advertised as linear with a single spring rate. Also, it looks like I overestimated the mileage that was on them, so mine only have around 10K on them.

OK, I knew i wasn't taking crazy pills, those are definitely progressive front. That being said they aren't that bad so if go kart doesn't pick these up hit me up and I'll take em off your hands

hey jarrod im def interested in them, mileage is good and im hoping to get some rsr springs on before a track day in may. that being said when r u taking them off and how did u want for em. also, did u have them on a z or g?

and row2k, they might look different but ive researched them alot and everything ive read says they are identical springs, same linear rate and everything. the only difference is that the ti2000 ones are made out of titanium and therefore weigh less, have a lifetime warranty and cost more.

I'll probably take them off either this weekend or the next, as long as the weather is nice. I was thinking $150 + shipping. They were/are on my 04 Z. I meant to get pics before I took the rears off, but I forgot.

I forgot that I do have this pic with the RSR ti2000 on my autocross setup. It looks much higher in the rear compared with my OEM wheels/tires because of the shorter 275/40/17s. Also, the spare/tools are out of the back and very little gas in the tank. I may post up a pic soon with Cobb rears & RSR fronts, since the rear drop right now is nearly identical to the RSR rears for whatever reason.

I was going to cut the rear spring mounts 0.5", but tried to avoid that by switching to Cobb springs. However, the Cobb rears don't seem any lower, so I may end up cutting anyway. I think the RSR drop would be perfect with the spring mounts cut.
