Now I want to see these compare to the RCE

Swift Sport springs installed today on my FRS.

It is my understanding there are two versions, but I don't know this for an absolute fact.
1) A "BRZ" model: 3.8kg/mm Fr; 4.5kg/mm Rr
2) An "FRS" model: 3.0kg/mm Fr; 4.5kg/mm Rr

I have the "BRZ" model 4F912 on box. Weather is icy here today and the car may not have the final alignment for another week. So far the rear is dropped about an inch/25mm and the front only a 1/2-5/8"/13-16mm. This has me concerned... but we shall see.

Whiteline crash bolts and rear upper control arms bushings installed at the same time.

The ones Evasive are selling are 3.0/4.5 so i wonder if the BRZ are still in development or what. Still trying to decide on these plus Koni's or Tein Street Basis. I want a little more drop than the Racecomps provide. I have Tein H Tech already might try them on the Koni's first

If you look at their website, they actually have two part numbers but quote the same spring rate for both:

4T909 T for Toyota?

4F912 F for Fuji?

My information came second hand from Swift when the springs were ordered. I wanted a more balanced spring rate, like the stock BRZ, not pronounced rear biased stock FRS rates. If they had not had a more balanced "BRZ" rate, I would have ordered Racecomp's springs.

The shop that installed the springs measured the spring rates on a Longacre spring tool and I should have those values soon.

Initial impression was the ride is no worse than stock. There looked to be an extremely slight progressive aspect to the construction, but nothing close to as the Eibachs. Quite a bit lighter than the Eibachs as well though.

Not a review I was looking forward to but thanks for the info, guess if my gc purchase don't go thorough ill be set with the rce

tonystewart 12-27-2012 10:01 AM

The wait was "oh no" such an exagerated bias, why?
