According to the factory shop manuals, the spring rate for a non-M030 951 is 125 lb/in.

I don't know why she likes it, but I can tell you that she indeed likes it very much... (That should explain why she screams my name when she's in bed with you).

e_nough, we're just messing around...

my bad, I was thinking 86 w/adjustable Konis option...
I am running the M030 180# springs now, and they are better, but it is really the increased valving on the struts that make the difference. I have a buddy who runs 400#, and it is much better... I will be going to 350# (My car is a daily driver..)
