The prototype set of FR-S Swift springs showed up at my place last night. I will install them tomorrow morning. They will sit a bit higher then the full production version, but I prefer this. More pics and info to come...

Yes, they would be.

I am industry and have had contacts there for a while now. I think they make the best spring money can buy period. Just my opinion. I will also weigh them vs stock as these are a fair bit lighter...

Btw I have my stock spring remove. Since I live in Cerritos if you like, I can bring my springs to you for brz spring measurement comparison.

Swift has data on the BR-Z springs as they have already prototyped them on a US car. But I appreciate it.

Swift is one of the few companies that actually has two different part numbers for the BR-Z and FR-S. In the end though, there will actually be 4 part numbers with the more aggressive rate spring coming later.

Dual rates?

I hope not.
( Unless the close wound part is fully compressed under vehicle weight,i.e. a built in helper spring).
