Why are u after a custom set? Custom made sets (custom spring rate, hieght etc) will cost u big bucks.
Pedders/Koni/King etc have lowered spring kits for about $350 installed at any suspension place like Pedders, Donnelans, Suspension City, TTF.
The normal lowered springs will drop your ae92 about 30-35mm.
Super lows will drop it about 40-45mm.
You can also get your standard ones reset or compressed to any height, although this method is not recommended.

My custom springs cost $85/pair from Browns Springs in Thomastown.
My understanding of maths is that 170 is less than 350.
You need to supply them a spring and an installed height.

While your letting your fingers do the walking, try National Springs in Campbellfield, they make springs from minute to huge for car manufacturers and also do one-offs.
