Last time I checked, spring rates were 6.4front and 4.6 rear.

This is quite firm as many people on the forums will tell you. So I wouldnt expect a comfy ride, but at least its better than the 9k plus spring rates other manufacturers are offering.

However I dont know how the shock quality is, Id say its decent enough for the street.

Nismo G attack S-tune suspension for R33 GTS-T is 5.3kg front and 4.8kg rear which is very reasonable

How much are you going to be paying for them? Reason I ask is I remember reading a write up in Zoom mag on a GTR fitted with Nismo suspension. Verdict? Over sprung and under damped. Porpoised enough to crunch the front lip. They also said turning up the damper adjusters had stuff all effect on damping. All it did was make the shocks cavitate. The owner ended up ditching the Nismo setup for Bilstein shocks with custom valving. From memory the springs were Eibach. Handling sorted, owner happy.

If you haven't already forked out the dosh I'd be thinking seriously about alternatives.

Hell,that's cheap. 2nd hand obviously. Thought you might be forking out a pile for new ones. I'd want to be sure of how many k's they had on them. Don't know if Nismo shocks are re-buildable.
