i believe i have the drsport (the color denotes which spring model is which) but i could be wrong it might be dr21supersport. i bought these off of jspec and the item description says 25mm front and 10mm rear. so i'm still assuming it's drsport, but by the looks of my car it looks lower than that......
edit: the lighter blue denotes drsport and the darker blue denotes dr21supersport, so my asumption here is dr21supersport.
as far as i'm concerned, these springs are at progressive rates of 3kg and 5kg (dual rate). i'm not sure... but i think i'm the only one that have it on a 240 in the states so far. the dual rates makes the spring absorb differently than progressive. it's like two springs in one. it's made so the car feels more softer, hence making these springs mainly for street (daily) driving. i'm guessing if the car is being driven lightly, both rates(3kg/5kg) will be used in terms of a "regular progressive" spring... so if the car is pushed harder, the 3kg rate will be compressed to its max and the rest of the force will be on 5kg, makin it a 5kg push. i can't read japanese... so someone please tell evertone the truth about these springs lol... :naughty: i'm just seeing how much i can get from this... oh yeah, it's *JDM TYTE*

click the dualrate link on the top right of the page for a demonstration of how dual rate works. very interesting.
