3rd Gen Springs On Fc

I was wondering if fd springs will fit on an fc....or would supra springs work on an fc?

Are you assuming these would be an upgrade? It'd be unusual for springs from one car to fit into a completely different car. If you want upgraded springs, then by springs made for an FC.

They won't fit, espcially up front. The fronts are progressive wound by changing the diameter - the FD3S does not use this type of spring. The rears are differing height.

If you want to get cheap, look for some Honda aftermarket springs for the rears. We've used aftermarket Integra spring in the rear of the FC with very little fuss.

Trying to find something to drop in for the front FC springs is next to impossible.
