V6 Springs? Drag??
Are there benefits to using these springs?? If so what are they? Anyone used them before?? I have BMR's right now..Any info would be great!! Would this give more weight transfer??

I did a V6 rear spring swap on my '94 a few years ago. Unfortunately I only did "back road" testing and did not go back to the track before doing some other mods. So , not even some "semi-scientific" results where I can say my sixty foot went from "x" to "y" with them.
What I can say is that I was immediately and totally convinced that it aided in weight transfer. This is based on SOTP, but a very imformed SOTP gauge. I am very in tune with my car and what it is doing and the first time I lined the car up and nailed it I was sure it was making a difference.
Like gator said, you don't want squat. Squat is actually bad. However, I got improved weight transfer out of them and that was a good thing.
Differrent setups will react in different ways, but if you have access to a cheap pair of V6 rear springs, I'd say give it a try. ****, the install will take you 10 minutes.
I am running QA1 adjustables all the way around, but did not have them on the back when I did the spring swap. Depending on track conditions, I dial them up or down in the back.
