Then what are you asking?

He has given you the right answer, its a combitnation of several off the shelf parts. Its not some super rare factory JDM/German suspension kit.

You have standard Bilsteins with a coil-over sleeve kit and TRD springs. Enjoy.

Probably off of another car or whatever.

It's obviously bilsteins with the sleeves on them, but the perches look to be HKS. Looks like a lot of different parts put together (which isn't really a bad thing if it works).

I just wanted to know the spring rates. Since these are the first linear, TRD coilover springs I've seen.

I see part numbers on em, but not well enough to make em out. If you get the part numbers it will be easy to find out what they're off of...

And if they don't have numbers,
and you have no idea what they are,
and it bothers you a lot,

Sell them to me :naughty:

Or find someone with a spring checker, and have them tested.

I use a wheel scale in my shop press to check spring rates.
I put a small squeeze on them, record what the scale says,
then compress them an additional inch, and see what that reading is.
Substract the first number, from the second number, and wala.......
You have the spring rate in pound/inch.
If you want the number in kg/mm like the Japanese do,
divide the pound/inch number by 56, that gives you the kg/mm number.

But I still think that this is bothering you way too much,
and you should still sell them to me :icon_bigg
