350kg springs up front, got some 450kgs for the track days, Tongue. Just some chopped springs in the rear, but it actually rides smooth.

I was almost sure, thats the rating of the springs.

They say " 450 " and " 350 ", so i guess it may be lbs sq. feet.

yup,
#lb's of force it takes to compress one inch.

You can divide it by 56(55.88 I think is the exact number) to go from LB/in to KG and and the opposite for visa versa.

So:
450lb/in = 8KG~
350lb/in = 6.25kg~

Thats a pretty stiff ride, I would imagine at that point you will really start to notice the ae86's not so rigid chassis?

I just have the 6.25kg springs on, and stock springs in the rear. SO it's not too bad.
