Default front springs installed, cars higher WTF?

just installed the front springs, they're neuspeed softsports. putting them on my eg 95 dx sedan.

i also used kyb gr2 front shocks off my friends em1 (ek), is this why its sitting higher?
i'm about to do the rears, if the rear sits lower than it does now then i think i'm going to just swap out and put my stock shocks in the front.

should i just swap out the front shocks for my stock ones anyway?

Im not postive, but the difference in shocks could cause the problem. Measure the distance from bolt hole to the lower spring seat on the old one, and measure the distance on the new one. also, the old springs could have been severely worn and sagging, and putting new springs just put it back to normal.

all the 92-00 front shocks are the same, the rears are just a little bit different because the forks are wider on 92-95 so if you use them on 96-00 you have to put spacers to make up for the extra space.
