Default Spring Problem

right now i have Nuespeed Sports springs. The hight it great in the front and like 1 1/4 " to high in the back. So i have rake. And i swaping my engine soon. I was lapping last year and i was ok with the sports, alot with the Stock DX brakes and Engine i was not exacty flying around the track.

What i need is suggestions for what springs you think would be best on a 93 Civic DX hB, with a b18c1 under the bonet. I was thinking about getting somehing like 500lbs frots and 700 lbs rears from Ebach and getting custome hights. Or Ground Control Coilovers, but the rates as far as i know are like, 550/500...

Next year i should be using this car for track/weekend only so i would like to get the right springs now rather then my crap ones now (they are great springs just too freken soft and un even)

your help is appericated. I would want a 2" drop max.

I also have Neuspeed Sports on a 95 si and had the same problem as your having, and it got even worse when I swapped the b16 in. What I did was bought Koni Yellows, (adjustable height settings) and now my car sits perfectly level. As for auto x and lap days my car is quite soft, but extremely predictable and with the right sway bar setup your car can actually stick very well. I know mine does. It looks like your serious about getting stiffer springs, but I just thought I'd give my $.02.
