I haven't tried the 1600 springs yet (I've considered it) but I have run the
comp springs for a long time and I assure you they are very stiff. I
wouldn't run comp rears without also installing comp fronts. Some of the
racers even said the comp rears were too stiff for racing purposes!

Subject: Rear springs
I readthe Bob Sharp 'Datsun Comp Manual' of the Datsun.org site. It stated
that 67 1600 and all 2000 had soft rear springs..saying to change to Nissan
Comp or early 1600 rear springs. Has anyone done this change and/or does it
even make a difference in the ride. I have a 66 and the poor thing is only
good for parts anyway..I was willing to try it while my 67.5 1600 is
apart..is it worth it?
