The front spring rates are a bit over 300, rears a bit
over 200.  They're also linear rate springs so they
take an immediate set when you toss the car into a
corner.  Since the car isn't lowered all that much
almost all of the wheel travel is maintained.  That
helps substantially when you hit a bump or ripple mid
corner.

The big difference between the Shine setup and say
Neuspeed race springs is the amount of wheel travel...
