Look into Ground Control coil-springs.

You can choose your spring rate. I'm sure you'll find what you'll need.

Heres the link for you since their main page is down

http://www.ground-control-store.com/...gory.php/CA=61

You used to be able to pick the spring rate, but I don't see it. I'd give them a call. They make GREAT products.

Now that makes a bit more sense. So you're looking for OEM height with a stiffer spring rate? As mentioned you may want to look into ground-control coilovers. The stock spring rate on them for your car should be slightly stiffer BUT with the threaded collar you can move it up and down as you'd like.
