Mach V Springs and Whiteline anti-roll bars - free shipping

Knowing Dan@Mach V, and knowing his work, when we saw that he had come up with his own springs for the R56 we knew we had to get some. So we did, and they are in stock.

Here's the direct link to them.



The springs are just a part of the system though. In fact, in less than 48 hours of picking up the car we knew it needed a rear bar. Ok, I'll admit, we were pretty sure of this before we picked up the car based upon our experience with a local's R53. So we had a nice Whiteline 20mm adjustable rear bar waiting before we picked up the TiC MINI. We were so happy with the results of the bar that we just had to get more in stock.

Here's the link to them.

Wow... Nothing. And here I thought free shipping would at least be slightly appealing...

What are the spring lbs. rates on the Mach V's? and do you know what the stock MCS spring rate is? (non sport) Also, is this a progressive rate spring?

Thanks

Springs are progressive. Dan@MachV has not released the rates. See this thread for reviews on pages 2 and 3.

As a side note: you're going to want the sport suspension dampers to go with these or you'll end up with a car that is underdamped/oversprung.

I do not know the stock rate as I have not sat down to calculate it yet.

I just found a guy to install this stuff. I think I'll go for it after I get back from Moab (wish I could do it before but I can't).
