Is there a height difference between 87-93 coil springs compared to 99-04 coil springs? I'm asking because I think the fox body springs are a little shorter and I want to use a set of them to lower my car slightly. I don't want to slam it so I thought this might give me a more aggressive stance without dragging the exhaust. What do you guys think?

The springs on a fox probably wont work because a fox weighs a lot less than a 99 and up gt, just get some lowering springs and camber caster plates.

I wouldnt use fox springs- as stated there is a significant weight difference between the two cars. Cutting stock springs should never be an option. Some springs, like the FRPP C springs have dead coils, so you can trim them if need be.
