Hey guys, what spring rates are those of you with Tockico Blues running? I have the racing beat/mazda speed springs currently and would like to know the lmits of the blues spring rates.
Also, does anyone know the spring rates for the the MS/Racing Beat springs???

 

Word is that Mazda is VERY SECRETIVE about spring rates. Supposedly even the MazdaMotorSports guys can't even get the info on them. RB says how much stiffer theirs are over stock, but aside from that, I dunno. Mazda cars always seem to be sprung firmer than other comparable cars in my opinion, hence their wonderful handling right out of the box. Myabe that's why it's so "hush-hush."

 

An interested party can always measure the rates of springs (linear or progressive). So this secrecy does not really makes too much sense.

I agree Florian, but I cant take my car apart just to find out..

 

I actually called around once trying to find a racing shop to measure the rates of some stock rear springs I had at the time, (from a P5, and a 2002 ES, I wanted to see which ones were stiffest) They wanted something like $75-100 for it, which I thought was a total rip-off. I think they just didn't want to mess with it. I'm sure someone could find a cheaper dog to do that hunt though.
