Spring rates for the T350

[PipeNslippers]

I was just wondering what the standard spring rates (front and rear) were for the T350?
My car has Eibach springs fitted with Nitrons and the car now handles / rides beautifully after a bit of tinkering with damper settings.
I was wondering if the Eibach springs were stronger than the standard T350 springs and how these compare with the standard Sagaris springs?

Has anybody tried to fit Sagaris / dampers onto a T350?

I heard a rumour that HHC has had a go. Stock T350 spring rates are very soft ie 200lb/in ( 35N/mm) front and 157lb/in (27.5 N/mm) rear. Some of the early cars may have 30N/mm front springs (or could be all with Harvey Bailey shocks).
Nitron list the usually supplied spring rates for thier T350 shocks on thier website or used to (CBA to look them up).

Thanks for the info fredd1e, I could not find this anywhere...

The standard Eibach springs supplied with the the T350 Nitron shocks kit are:

- Front: 400 lbs/in (vs. 200 lbs/in standard)
- Rear: 350 lbs/in (vs. 157 lbs/in standard)

The standard Sagaris (factory fitted Eibachs) springs are:

- Front: 450 lbs/in
- Rear: 400 lbs/in

So it looks like the Eibachs with the Nitrons bring the T350 closer to the Sagaris ideal of harder springs (doubling the spring rates all round) and softer shocks (dependant on the settings)...
