Either the 135 springs did nothing, or Enoe's car sagged about an inch from the worn out bushing i mentioned in another thread
Was the suspension loosened and then torqued up under load (weight on wheels) after the springs were fitted?

Update on mine:
Just collected the car and drove home in peak traffic so didn't get much of a chance to check it out. However, the ride feels comfy and, on the freeway exit near home that I normally zip around in a "spirited driving" fashion, the car just sat flat and felt superbly planted.

Ride height data on the set-up sheet given to me, shows suggested ride height 322 mm front and rear, measured from wheel centre to fender arch lip. However, although it is certainly sitting higher than that, it does have some rake (nose down attitude). Springs are 200mm 6kg front and 200mm 11kg rear.

I'll take some actual figures and pics after a test drive over the hills on the weekend.
