Default Need to know the stock spring rates

I'm getting a 91 Civic with stock suspension. In the near future, I'll want to throw on a more performance-minded suspension. This thread is not to ask what I should go with; I already have some ideas and haven't gotten to that point just yet. What I need to know is this: what are the stock spring rates for the EF Civic? The car is a DX hatch. The car will be a fair weather daily driver, so I'll be choosing something sporty yet comfortable based on what the stock rates are.

Semi-related question: does someone know the approximate weight differences of a B16 compared to the car's stock D15?

Thanks for responses!

Mike
