1st Gen RX-7 Springs.What rates?

[miketrier]

I used to race against Scott. My 1st gen had 350 fronts, 175 rears, and the ISC tubular front sway bar, and no rear sway bar. I held the MAM track record for IT7 and the driver who purchased the car from me makes it go even faster. I wouldn't do much different with the car today.

Misc comments:
Tom, call Lee Grimes at Koni for your damper needs. remind him of the help he gave me in Mid Ohio, and he'll get you that set up pretty reasonably. There's a neat application he has for the RX-7. If you have trouble getting a hold of him, let me know and I'll hook you up.

Advance design: To those using them, beware, there have been a lot of reports of constant nitrogen leakage...like every day. You need to be on top of that. Which is a massive pain up front. Reliability in other aspects of them has been suspect.

I think the Tokiko estimate (400F, 300R) is a tad high....
