spring rates are different. The SR kit was designed to help eliminate understeer. I have the SRs but
haven't driven a regular Vogtland car so I can't do a direct comparison.

Yes. Spring rates are different. Fronts are nearly the same but rears are higher...
The SR GTs are 575F/675R. I believe the regulars are about 550 all the way around. Intent was to mimmick a swaybar effect and help the understeer issue in our cars.
I've had both and they ride similarly. The GTs from SR are basically like the regulars with a swaybar in the rear. I personally like the regulars with a swaybar a tad more than the GTs.<ul><li><a href="http://www.startupracing.com/Contents/Products/B5/B5ProductsSuspension.htm">Startup Racing GTs...</a></li></ul>

Our Vogtland coilovers are a tremendous kit.
They're the original kits and are still a fantastic option to consider. They offer firm rates great for aggressive street applications, while still offering a very comfortable ride.
Tomasz has a custom rear spring made for his kits which differentiates it from the off the shelf kit.
We have our kits in stock now, and dozens of satisfied customers still loving them!
Feel free to email me if you have any questions.
