RE: Race Tech Question
You don't say how long the springs you have are, but my 1.0 kg RaceTech springs were much shorter than the stockers. I ended up going with a spacer that gave me a preload about equivalent to that of the stock springs. (spacer length close to the difference in length between the stockers and the RaceTechs...about 4")...... see spacer in attached pic. This is on a RK without the cartridge. CN
