Re: Coup GT Springs

["Newman,Lawrence C." <lcn@mitre.org>]

Remember, if you cut the springs appraciably, you will increase the harshness
of the ride.  Essentially, the more coils, the cushier the ride (everything
else being equal).  As far as replacement, sometimes they break (rally cars,
for example), sometimes the car leans.
