This is bad, the wheels are turning now and I'm tempted to do this next summer. If I sell my Stances I can recoup a decent amount of cash I imagine.

Since the 8610 are just SA, how is the compression on them? I'm assuming its going to be pretty good for the target range of spring rates we're talking about here, say 350-650? The extra $450 for the 8611s seems like a lot to pay since frankly, I'm not skilled enough at this point to intelligently adjust DA dampers.

Anyone want to throw out a guess as to decent spring rates for a S14 running sticky street tires or longer lasting R comps with a front progress bar, stock rear, bolt in 4 pt roll bar, and no significant weight reduction (full interior, radio, etc.)?
