didn't I answer this on another thread just recently?

I've never met anyone with an AE92 that owned them, but people with other cars didn't have anything bad to say about them... mind you this was a couple of years back so they could've sagged and who knows what else by now.

Do a search on google on something like "B+G springs review"

I had a set of B+Gs on for about 6 months. I liked them, but they had the same issue as the intrax (they lowered the front a little bit more than the back). I'll sell you my used ones for $150+shipping.

yes and no...

it helps rotate the rear which fights under steer (common ff prob)

but if your not a skilled driver this can make negotiating turns a bit scarey... believe me i've delt with this

at high speeds if you are turning and you need to let off the gas your weight will shift immediately to the front which could cause your rear-end to slip out...

so in autoX yes but for DD or other uses prob as close to even with the front being the lower of the two
