Ok I've measured the springs I have and crunched the numbers. These rates are calculated and based on an assumption for the Modulus of Rigidity for the spring steel of 79000 GPa. That's a rough guess for spring steel (based on info found on Google), but not the actual value for the exact material used. I don't know that.
If anyone could count the coils for the three springs I don't have, I could complete the data? If you want to know how to do this, PM me. Thanks.
Also if someone at the Euros could pass this under the nose of Shin to verify, that would be useful and also give me more of a clue to tune the Modulus of Rigidity to get closer to the actual real values.
Cheers.
