Both my 3.0Si Coupes were Sport models so I'm not sure of all the differences, but Sport models sit 15mm lower than SE so the springs will be 15mm shorter and stiffer to compensate for the reduced travel.
Hopefully someone will know about the dampers and ARBs.

Sport suspension question vs Coupe SE
Pretty sure the dampers are the same but the ARBs are 1mm fatter (25mm vs 24mm) on the Sport.

Sport suspension question vs Coupe SE
Springs are shorter by 15mm, dampers are different and arbs are 1mm thinner. Bushes (other than the arb bushes) are the same.
Owning an SE that’s now on sport suspension I wouldn’t say the sport is much more uncomfortable. But is a bit tighter
