I run 4cyl front springs (used) on my 93GT, dropped it about 1"- 1.25" , the pair cost me $40. My rear springs are Eibach pro-kit, got the same drop and cost me $50. If you search the usual sites (e-bay,craigslist,corral forums, local classified) you can find some budget friendly deals.

I like the eibachs they handle much better and if you add polyurethane isolaters your ride will be much better

I used to have the Ford Racing "C" springs in mine. Handled like it was on rails and hooked better because the pinion snubber was real close to the chassis.

4 cyl springs will be your cheapest option that'll achieve your goal
