Default Anyone have Neuspeed SoftSport springs and GR2's?

I know there has been alot of questions about the sports and GR2s, but the soft sports are only .75" drop. I need to retain descent ground clearance because of the roads around here. Would the handling be as good a stock SI or close? I'll add a neuspeed strut brace and a bigger antiroll bar and maybe a rear one unless it will interfere with my exhaust.

The way i was told about the neuspeed springs, the softsports and sports are 25% stiffer than stock. Race are about 45% stiffer. I have sports with gr-2's on my ride and i love them. Tomarrow is the first race of the scca solo 2. This is the first time i'll get to see how they really preform.

i would imagine that would give you about the same ride as a Stock SI. Cause those springs are 25% stiffer in front and 33% stiffer in the rear( then EX springs). So if you throw Si anti roll bars you could pull around .85g on the skid pad. That set up should give you a pretty good ride while allowing your car to handle pretty well.

Who makes a rear antiroll bar that would clear a Thermal 3" exhaust, which I may upgrade to if I build my engine. Would the stock SI bar clear?
