Tokico Springs

Does anyone have spring rate info for Tokico's new D-Spec suspension Kit? (DSK-519). Thanks.

yes, i believe they are just shocks that can be used with wide assortments of spring rates.

I talked to a tokico sales rep today who said they are about 3 months from finishing their d-spec kit, which will be the d-spec struts with matching springs. He said a month before its release they would know the specs like spring rate and drop.
I had a tokico matching strut/spring kit for my last car that I was very happy with. It had a nice drop, but maintained a comfortable ride.

I talked to tokico again today about the kit -- 1.25" drop all around. Front spring rate is 200, rear 148. Mazdatrix is selling these for $895!! I can't really understand this considering it is Dspec shocks ($579 mazdatrix) with matching springs. $316 is a lot for springs. I think i'd rather buy dspecs with rb or tein springs and save money
