Here's a new, never installed set of Suspension Techniques lowering springs. Bought them for my '86 SE years ago and never installed. $200 plus shipping (CONUS only please). Here's a pic..... Thanks for looking.

Spider, I've gotten a lot of PM inquiries on this issue. To be honest I bought these so long ago that I can't recall with any certainty, but, I believe that the drop was 1.5 inch front and 1 inch rear. ST made the better of the sets available, IMHO. They had a much better progressive rate on the rear that allowed to car to be a good daily driver on the street and still perform great on the track and in autocross. Comfy when needed and stiff when pushed. There should be a lot of good info on the web on the quality of these springs and their performance characteristics. There was a ton of good info available when I bought them. Hope that helps.
They're certainly not for everybody. If you have larger than stock wheels and a good set of sway bars it's really no problem. It depends a lot on what you'll do with the car and, of course, what your roads are like if it's strictly for a daily driver. I always thought the car looked awesome and rode and handled really well with these springs, but, that was quite a few years ago and I may feel differently now if I was to jump into one of my old cars!! Still gotta say thought, the car LOOKED AWESOME!!
ST has discontinued these so you're not going to find any info on them from their website... I looked into buying a set a while back but when I inquired ST about the spring rates, they said they don't make them anymore and wouldn't give me an answer.
I'm curious what they are compared to the Eibach's. I've got the Eibachs in both of my cars... If you're going to do any hard cornering i.e. racing or track, you will have to trim the bumpstops back. It's loud as hell when you ride on them and hampers your turning ability.
Canyonflyer, thanks for that input. As stated in one of my posts above, that is my understanding of the main difference between the STs and most of the other spring sets that were available for the Fiero back in the day. I had several friends that did racing and autocross with their Fieros and most of them had the Enkei springs and they were really tough on the street. They may be better than the STs for the track. That's why I went with the STs for my cars. The ride was still pretty comfortable (for a lowered car with stiffer springs) and it still handled great and the stance was really nice. Best of both worlds in my opinion. The set that is for sale was the last set that I bought and then I ended up selling the car before I got to install the springs. Hope that helps anyone that may be interested.
Bump! I was in line for these but have decided to go coilover. FieroMeister is a great guy, I have dealt with him before. Always good communication and a great transaction! Someone that is in the market for lowering springs will likely be very happy with these!

Thanks Kyle. Much appreciated. Good luck with those coil overs!!
Yep. No shortage of interest, just shortage of cash so far. My next step is I'll split the shipping cost with the buyer. I really need to get some project dollars and I think the price is fair, but, I've been wrong on occasion!! Thanks for the interest!!!
Got your PM and replied! Looks like maybe, possibly, there is a bit of a chance that these may be sold folks!!! We'll see. Thanks in any case for all the interest!
