less coils? when the number of coils decreases the spring rate increases.. when the diameter of the spring wire decreases the spring rate decreases.. so put the two and two together and the z MAYBE a slightly lighter car then the G Sedan..

Also your sedan is a sport (stiffer springs) did you get your springs from a SPORTS Z not a base?
