Added Koni yellows on full hard / full soft and the oem showas too:
Forgot to label them but in lbs force on the Y axis & IPS on the X axis.
edit: forgot to say, I used the same figures for the koni soft rebound as the oem as they were so close it didn't seem worth the time to enter them.
OEM Bilstein dampers in JDM 1998 NB RS - what springs?

I can't find any miata/mx5 specific dyno's online but i do remember seeing the numbers for them somewhere. TheToyota 86 version of the Ohlins DFV which uses 6kg springs front & rear looks like this though-Angreal wrote:Hmmm how would I stick my Ohlins on there?
I'm not going to pretend I understand this crap any more since it's been a decent amount of time since my uni days and being forced to understand it
Rears:
Fronts:
I'm assuming that what's pictured there is full soft (blue) & full hard (grey) - pretty impressive adjustment range for the low speed curve. Looks like 25-200+ lbs @ 1IPS and the shape goes from very progressive to very digressive.

This is a pretty good overview for getting useful out of shock dynos: http://www.nttyres.com/downloads/guide_ ... graphs.pdf
Important part:
50-150mm = roughly 2-6 IPS
150mm+ = 6 IPS+
Important part:
0-50mm/s = roughly 0-2 IPS on the graphs aboveIt is commonly accepted in circuit racing that shaft velocities between 0mm/s and 50mm/s are considered low speeds and contribute to driver feel and the car’s body movements (sprung mass). Speeds between 50mm/s and 150mm/s are considered mid range shaft velocities and affect the car under braking, during fast changes of direction and ride harshness. Speeds from 150mm/s upwards are considered high speed shaft velocities and are concerned with absorbing energy from bumps and controlling energy from the vehicle’s unsprung mass.
50-150mm = roughly 2-6 IPS
150mm+ = 6 IPS+
