Are there any aftermarket springs which allow you to keep the stock height?

A friend of mine wants stiffer suspension for his 95 Eclipse Turbo FWD. We installed strut bars (front&rear), sway bars (front&rear) and KYB adjustable shocks. We tried to installed TECH 2" drop springs but it's impossible to drive such a lowered car here in Russia considering our bad roads.

As I know Eibach Pro-kit makes the car 1" lower. Is it possible to find any aftermarket springs which keep the stock height or as close as possible to the stock height?

Thanks,

-Yes, it's call Coil Over. At the bottom of this page , that's how the coil overset up look like on a yellow Koni, I'm using this set up with front spring rate @ 375 lbs, rear @350 lbs on the KYB AGX, front spring perch need to be removed in order to use this DSS coil over.
 
Note for a 2G the suspension is completely different and you will need to run higher spring rates. If you want it at stock height I would recomend getting 8" springs instead of the 7" springs that GC normally uses.
 
-I install them myself, basic hand tools, spring compressor, disc cutter+ bench grinder (for the spring perch), or you can remove the entire strut assm and take it to the shop to have them seperate the spring.
