Just get some coil-overs, adjustable heigh plus better quality and handling.

They WILL NOT WORK. The cars have fundamentally different suspensions.

Keep in mind that if you lower the rear more than about 1" then you'll need to correct the negative camber (buy a camber rod, Flatout Motorsports has a good one for just under $100) or you'll wear through tires in no time. I think the Intrax springs lower the car about that much.
