According to the offical Toyota press releases, the GT86 in Europe has the same front spring rate as the FR-S.
From the offical Toyota EU
press kit:
"The GT86’s 23 N/mm front spring rates allow for slight body roll on initial turn-in, creating the perfect relationship between steering feel and vehicle behaviour exhibited by a classic front-engined, rear-drive platform"
From the offical Toytoa UK's
press pack:
"The 23N/mm front spring rates allow for slight body roll on initial turn-in, creating the kind of perfect relationship between steering feel and vehicle behaviour shown by classic front-engine/rear-drive platforms."
Does anyone has a source showing the OEM Toyota spring rate is F3.0k and R3.3K? I could not find anything except the Wingsofwar's thread or the thread that refer to his thread.
