Are you talking about Mazdaspeed the old Mazda Competition?
Or the old Mazdaspeed stuff?

Either or should be a direct drop-in fit.

I got Eibach Prokit Springs which is what mazdaspeed recommends to use with their adjustable shocks. Instead I am using the Eibach springs with Tokico Illumina 5way Adjustables in the rear and factory shocks in the front. They are nice and comfy. Its not bouncy at all. Pretty smooth for an old car. The drop is not too low and not too high either. in the front, it drops to one finger between the tire and fender and the rear it is 2 1-2 fingers.

I felt the rear could use a bit more of a drop but I absolutely loved the ride and ability of those springs.

Are you sure their is one like that? I'd like to see a pic of it and where you are planning to buy it from. All the stores that sell Mazdaspeed Parts specifically say that Mazdaspeed recommends the use of Eibach Prokit Springs with their shocks.
