No worries, I put some low mileage Coupe Springs on my Vert., and cut 1/2 coil per spring. Did it almost 2 years ago, no problems. Bought them used from the Market section.

there are no problems with cutting springs. i cut 3/4 coil all around a couple of weeks ago. i was also VERY surprised that the ride quality is exactly the same. here's a cell phone pic...

...not to steal the thread but how much more or less would you have to cut 'vert springs to match a coupe? about to buy a sonic blue '03 'vert with a HUGE factory gap over the rear tires, not as bad up front...
