that sounds too good to be true, I need stiffness in mine, as it gets constantly thrashed sideways  and the kings low and pedders shocks most deffinately suck balls in stiffness! here is my rear camber with Simmons FR 17x9 +28 offset
another view
keep us posted on the suspension joorsh, I would like to know the results!

Kings lows are crap in MA61's. They're nowhere near stiff enough for the height, and in fact they're only marginally stiffer than stock springs so any improvement in handling is negligible. My car corners so much better now I have 300lb/in springs up front and Koni sport shocks. Can't wait to do the same in the rear (finances permitting).

Yeah 1500 for the lot. Using all Noltec parts, which are pretty damn good.

I do know that the IRS celcia springs are 225lb/ft fronts (effective linear rate once installed) & 200lb/ft rears. Stock are rumored to be somewhere around 100/125 IIRC.
Another thing to consider when getting new springs is that the actual rate of the spring and effective rate at the wheel (due to the IRS) are different things.
Does anyone know who makes urethene steering rack bushings for our cars? They're not in SUperPro catalog, or Nolathane catalog; Noltec site is always down, Whiteline site/catalog sucks...

If you get all that stuff installed for $1500, you got the bargain of the century. I paid more than that just for my front end setup - and I installed it myself!

Keep us posted on your suspension Joorsh! Sounds very interesting, specially for only $1500 for all 4 corners!
