I am in the process of going back to the original suspension on my 96 SE. I had the Bat springs with the SVT stuts, which lowered the car about 1.250". I put on new rear SE springs # FR5Z-5560, about $53 each with the discount from Signature L/M. Haven't done the fronts yet.
If you have over 50K on the suspension. I would get new struts also. They cost about $60 each.
