i'm not too familiar with the 6th newspeed springs, but i've heard good things about them. as far as i know the v6 and the 4 banger have different suspensions

V6 and 4 cyl have different suspensions, specifically spring rates if I'm remembering correctly.

Easiest way to find out is to call Neuspeed or another suspension manufacturer, or your dealer, etc.

alrite, do u guys think the 2002 coupe better with just a 1.5 drop in the frontor a 1.5 drop all around, because rite now the gap between the tire and car is bigger in teh front than in the back. Also if i only dropped the front woudl that mess up my suspension since i would be riding on stock in teh back and like eibach prokit in the front?
My friend has a 3.2 tl and the gap in teh front was bigger than in the back and he dropped it 1.5 all around and when you look at it from teh side it looks like the back is lower because the gap is smaller than in the front.

I have prokits on my car and they are around a 1.5 inch drop (closer to 1.3 I believe.) Its plenty low enough for me, and I still get a good ride. Ride height really just depends on your taste. Some people like their cars slammed while others take the more practical route.

Is it 1.3 all around or is it lower in the front than in the back?

most springs dont offer a X.XX" drop all around, its usually more of a drop in the front than in the rear. if you want the drop to be perfect, get coilovers.

from my experience i saw that i have more of a drop for the rear, than for the front, but that is just an optical ilussion since the front fender well tends to be bigger than the rear one. so far i have the eibach prokits, and they offer a nice ride after i cut the bumpstops some more and have the shock set up for the softest setting.
