STI stock spring rate?

Does anyone one know the spring rate on the stock STI black springs?

I am trying to make something work.

Kevin

The stock STi spring rate is 188 front and 173 rear. Here is a good spring rate chart: http://www.ravensblade-impreza.com/t...ng/spring.html

Thanks for the spring rate info. I have the stock STI springs w/ adj STI struts and they are way stiffer than the Stock WRX springs. Why would anyone want the Pink springs?
Do you know what the damper rate chart that came w/ my adj struts is talking about? It is all in Japanese except the chart. I still have the struts set at #1 (the lightest?). It sure is a vast improvement over stock for AutoX.
