Post specific rate springs

Hi guys,
I'm new to the site so forgive me if I write anything wrong.

Just wondering if anyone could tell me what options I have for specific rate springs. I want a 1.5" drop, nothing more, I'm sick of my other cars(Civic and a Supra turbo) bottoming out. I'm looking for fairly high spring rates, 700-1000 in the front and around 350-400 in the back. These are just figures I've gotten from reading other posts so I'd welcome any other suggestions for spring rates. thanks in advance.

Geoff

Ditto!
What-cha got done to the car?

Those are some quite stiff springs for the street!
I personally ran the Eibach 450-580's, then moved up to 650# linears from BBK. Now on my roadracer, I am moving up to 880# (equivalent) coilovers.
