Since my current focus is suspension / handling I've been looking into tender springs/helper springs to compliment the rear air bag assist, which I've been wanting to do.
This should raise my total over all ( theoretical ) spring rate.
Front
Current 6kg/mm : 336lb/in
New: 8-8.5kg/mm : 448lb/in-476lb/in
Rear
Current: 4kg/mm : 224lb/in
New : ** 6-6.5kg : 336lb/in-364lb/in

Time for tune up spring maintenance.
I have to do the following;
Remove and replace OEM suspension (F&R) and sway bar link. ( Cusco forsale )
Replace OEM radio and upper vent covers.
Replace rad ( pin hole leak engine bay side ) ($150+fluid)
Maybe replace front pads? ($45)
Bleed the brakes and clutch lines alike bit. (Quart)
Maybe check compression. Probably cheap insurance to do so. And inspect plugs. ( if I can get the right damn socket )
Swap t/b housings ( code for tps has come on intermittently)
Of coarse I have to do this before I start a 8 week training course where I need my car to work spot on.
