Moog springs, slightly lower. Not a fun job.

Oh and I took my front sway bar off years ago. Get rid of that dead 30-40 lbs of weight off the front of the car and plus it looks cleaner. Not to mention, with the larger rear sway bar, your car will actually handle BETTER on the street! No joke.

I just had to laugh my ass off when I saw the pic of your front coil springs and the description "not a fun job". I went through the EXACT same thing with my GN. I replaced the front springs along with the new tubular control arms. That was the worst thing I have ever had to do on my GN, and that is saying a lot, because I've owned the car since 98'. Nice car btw!
