I think escort panelvan rears fit in there.

Ask StockAE86. He has them.

how stiff do they have to be? are they for track work and drifting or just to be lower and a bit stiffer, i have a full set of lovells super lows from my old sprinter they've seen 6 months of driving sit very low and are stiffer than stock but i don't know the rates fronts maybe around the 4kg mark and rears around 2.5 - 3. thats just a guess compared to my 6kg and 4.5 kg ones.

hey

yeah, they have to be pretty stiff, there basically just gonna be a cheap option for the track until i can afford coilovers...

i currently have the lovells super lows..... and they are 2.4kg (f)
