We are not going to be releasing the Sport springs. We are going straight for the Spec R's. They are faily aggressive rates and are going to be very performance oriented. They will be comfortable enough to be daily driven.

They are going to ready in a month and a half.

Thanks for looking into Swift.

Best Regards,
Sales

ok it's October, whats the hold up swift? LOL

So based on those #'s ^^^^ Does this mean they will be 'stiffer' than Eibachs...??

And what I'm saying is, I have a sub box in the back with 2x10" + amp... When I had Eibachs, the rear end squatted... So my question is if I had these springs, would it still do so, or are they able to handle the extra 120ish pounds?

Well I do know that if you get LINEAR springs you will have less of a problem with a load in the back. Maybe get some Nismo springs? They are STIFF as Fvck!

Yes, thats what I was told, if I get any progressive spring I'm screwed... I guess I'll just hold out for Coilovers in the spring lol

Word is in. They're coming in 2 weeks According to KamiSpeed, Swift will only have 5 sets left. So you guys need to jump on these.

Swift were getting a total of 15 sets on this shipment, but 10 sets were all pre-sold. So Kami decided to buy the last 5 sets. Because Swift won't be getting any more for at least 6 more weeks.

So that's why I jumped on the pre-order list. I don't want to wait 2 months for these. Not sure how many Kami have now though.

You would think that with the amount of demand for these springs have, theyd be capable of producing more.
