the 225 are fine but I've been doing a lot of local driving lately and the roads round here are really bumpy which make it difficult to drive quick . On a motorway or track it's fantastic .
Yes John,

Think Mike Rainbird knows what the Gaz come with as standard as pretty sure he used to spec different springs when he supplied them.
If I remember correctly im sure he recommended 325-350lb for the front and 150lb for the rear for road use but the 150lb on the rear for me allowed the car to squat too much when on boost in 2nd and 3rd gear meaning the tyres scrubbed the arches so I have now gone for the 185lb rear springs and its fine for me.
Jim at SCS measured my rear springs for me to get the poundage (Still don't know the fronts but they will do for now) but sure you could find the info for the Gaz somewhere online
HTH
Edit:
Done some searching for you...
GGR say the GHA Kit has Front 350lb 10" spring, rear 225lb 12" spring
and the Gold kit has Front 400lb 8" spring, rear 225lb 12" spring
