Spooler from reading OZ link I do think I need to go with 7kg/mm or even 6kg/mm

OZ thanks for the link, I am still reading it over and over as there is so much information in there but from what I was able to understand till now it looks like i need to go with front 14kg/mm or 13kg/mm and rear 7kg/mm or 6kg/mm.

I don't have any aftermarket aero only the Nismo wing and lip that came with the car and the back of the car is gutted. Adding aero
and gut the front (100% stock today) are things that I will do one day, but when I will do them I will also need to change the spring rates.

What do you guys think about these numbers?
