On my thread on the MR2OC a while ago a few people posted up pics of stock springs and the number of coils where different. I think it might have been Trev and HM who posted the pics, not sure now, shame the thread is gone.


I think you are right. I just checked out a buddies gen3 springs, the spacing looks the same but they have less coils.
