Hey Cuz.

Could try late model samurai coil springs as the were the upgrade for the cart springs the 413's had.

Depends a bit on where you are going to put them. SWB Vitara rears are a good start if the springs are outside the chassis rails.

Mine started with vits all round but found the front a bit short for my purpose and as the rears were inside the rail (axle has gone back a bit so no room outside the rails) they were a bit soft. I am running 94 prelude rears in front and currently r32 skyline rears in the rear. The rears are still to soft.

SWB vit rears are 155lb per inch and about 310mm free length as a start. Have also heard late model Accord springs are long and work OK.

Oh yeah mine has had a bit of a body chop and is sitting on lux axles. with rear axle back 250mmish and front forward 75mmish
