Why Is My Rear Saggin So Much?

I notice today that the rear of my car is getting lower and lower and everytime I go over a bump or any little thing in I hear like a loud bang, and when I go out and have a friend in the back seat the noise is even worse I have to tell them to sit in the middle.. I would like to know what could this be? My suspension is the tokico blues shocks with neuspeed race springs hope that helps. I think I might need to upgrade my shocks but maybe I can be wrong... Thank you.

The Koni's are worse also I believe, being that they are inserts. Perhaps you should look into a full coilover.

oil commin out from it.. or maybe it dried up and it was blown for awhile and you just start to notice it just now.. it usually like that, most of the people doesnt know that they ride with a blown shock, specially with an aftermarket springs with stock shocks. (and thats what happen to me lol)

If you had a sedan with coupe springs, that would explain the sagging; But your profile says you have a coupe so that can't be it.
