"(minus the cosine of the angle the struts are leaning at)"
angle between the vertical and coilover? then it results in something close to ~0.8-0.9" which seems pretty close
TEIN is not a "true coilover" in the rear, same setup. separate spring and shock for the basic and street kits
this shows 6kg springs as you mentioned:

this shows the construction of the rear on the last page(pg10)

have you seen them in person? how did you come to the conclusion that rear is a true coilover?
we know for sure that the basic kit has separate spring and shock from here:

goddamn ____ing ____. Nothing ever goes smoothly plus since im taking videos of everything it takes a bit longer.
fronts done. end result +0.25" at max height of coils which wasnt dictated by the safe amount of thread but rather by the stabilizer link which wouldn't align with the coilover.....if it did then the car would be +1.25 lol
