That's a lot of questions! :) I don't think they make them for the syncro, they haven't had syncros there for a 10 years. However, I do not know if there is any real difference between a syncro spring and a 2wd spring. It would help if someone could measure the length and coil thickness of a syncro front and rear. Yes the rears are "progressive" shaped, (although I'm NOT sure that it's really a progressive rate spring. It looks to me like the small coils are just for fitment, and don't really do anything..) Hmmm, testing the springs MAY be possible, I'll talk to my friend the mod-King and see if he knows where I could get them tested. (HE put a syncro in his Corrado! And then supercharged it!) I guess I could get them in a week or so, but I have to figure out shipping. Weight = $$$$. But I dont' think the entire set would be more than $200...but DON'T hold me to that. I'm JUST guessing. I'll look into it. James
