Almost all springs sag a bit on this car. I have stranos and they don't sag much, but they do a little. Eibachs tend to sag a lot on the LS1 kits. LT1 prokits I've heard are better. Sportlines are too low and suprisingly also have a lower springrate for some reason.

WS6 springs were either the 1LE stiffer springs, same as stock, or the SLP package springs depending on the year and model. Here's some info I pulled from a Sam Strano post:

1993 1LE's had 1LE front springs, the 32mm front bar, STOCK rear springs and a 21mm bar, 1LE valved deCarbon shocks.

1994-1995 1LE's got 1LE front and rear springs (not stock) the 32mm front bar, but down to a 19mm rear bar, and 1LE spec deCarbon shocks.

1996-1999 1LE's got 1LE springs front and rear, 32/19 bars, Koni DA's.

No 2000 1LE.

2001-02 1LE's were taken over by SLP. They had a hollow 35mm front bar, the 21mm rear, Koni DA's. As best I can tell stock springs.

Up until about mid-2000 some time SS's and WS6's got 1LE springs, after that time they got standard springs.

Hope that helps..

I was just debating this but was worried it would make it ride too stiff?

Also, about how much does 1 coil drop it?
