I'm not sure on the spring rates :/
I got it off someone else 2nd hand. I got a little pressie this morning though! Check out my KNOB! Not the EXACT same gear knob, but it is the same model. I will take a pic of it later. Feels SO MUCH BETTER than the stock gear knob.

Car looks good lowered!
Seems like you need some spacers to get the rears to sit nice. you thought about doing that at all?

It actually sits fine, except I got a bunch of camber because the car's lowered 1.5-2.0 inches. I need to take it to a suspension place to get a wheel alignment, height adjusted to 105mm and get the wheels balanced again.

Looks good dude.
You should shift the battery further back all the 5kg closer to the center of the chassis just saying doubt you would notice it.
