The springs are fox body springs designed for a 4 cylinder car. They're a lighter spring so they're going to allow you to transfer weight better at the track. You can get them from Summit or just about any auto parts store. Personally, a set of MT DR's and UPR upper and lower CA's with all sphericals have done wonders for my track times. Keep in mind you're going to need torque box reinforcements.

Torque box reinforcements are plates that reinforce your torque boxes. The torque boxes are the points on the body that the control arms attach to. Take a look at UPR's sight, you can get them there, as well as many other places. Basically, the stock rubber bushings have alot of give to them, and really soften the blow to the boxes. Anything performance oriented puts alot more stress on the boxes, and they really can't handle it. They need to be welded up and reinforced. Especially if you're going to a spherical style bushing, you'll tear the hell out of the torque boxes.
