Replacing Coil Sptings AE82/FX16

I just got an FX16 for a sweet deal, but the person who had it before me put about 200,000 miles on it with it full of junk so the springs are saggin' everywhere and its real bouncy. I originally wanted to do an OEM replacement but those springs have been discontinued. Does anyone know of some performance springs that ride extremely close to OEM height, I dont want to have to mess with camber and what not. Thanks a bunch

You might actually like the Tein.H.Tech springs, They really look mean, they ride really good, and combined with a good strut you can get performance and comfert out of a completely aftermarket suspension...

I think the Tein.H.Tech springs drop 1.3inches in the front and .8 in the back... a nice agressive stance, and not TO low. but your suspension doesnt bounce around only because the springs are sagging, this means its definately time for some new struts. Day and night difference with new struts. And if you are going with aftermaket springs, you are going to want a good strut, and with that body style, struts are dirt cheap. Get some Bilstens.
