Guys,

Over the eyars there have been many discussione regarding this, and so I decided it was worth getting a definative answer;

I have phoned Eibach, and confirmed that they are Linear Springs. I'll post the spring rates as soon as I can find my notes.

Next I contacted TTE to get teh specs of their springs

And was told;

MR2 (W3) springs are linear both front and rear. Spring rate  FR C=17N/mm, RR C=27,5N/mm


So there you have it, I'm not sure why we started beleiving that one was linear and teh other progressive but it seems both are linear.

I thought that the TTE springs are made by Eibach! Hmmm....

I wouldn't be surprised if their numbers match TTEs'.

TTE are made by eibach, biut we've been debating for ages if they wewre teh same and concluded not as one was known ro be progressive.

Phil, if you have it handy then go for it. If not don't go digging it out as I thik I've got it resolved now.

Sure you can live without 500hp, but it\'s languishing.

Mark, haven't yet got my TTE from James, so no joy yet on your photo request. Perhaps you can ask him since its taking him a bit of time to wrap them all up   s:cry: :cry: s:cry:
