Thanks guys for your info.

I'm a suspension engineer and bit of a geek so I've made my own spreadsheets. I've been calculating Roll centre height, load transfer etc. I haven't done any SDoF models though.

With regards to damping forces I'm hoping to calculate %critical damping so I can estimate what springs I can run with my Greddy's - I'm hoping to run softer springs.
I did the same thing with my S15 to spec my own springs rates and I was very happy with the result.

I'll try to get the Tokico HTS info off the graphs and see where they come out.
