from another post i was looking at a few days ago, I read up that the eibach pro-kit is a pretty good deal. not sure about how much it is but it gives a 1.25 drop. imo, i think that's good enough unless you really want to slam thecar to the floor lol

but there are other springs on the eibach website (www.eibach.com) that give a 1.5 drop i think that's what you're talking about so yea.

im thinking about doing the same to mine but trying to decide between coilovers and springs. I'm doing my research as we speak.

coilovers r out of the question for me right now.. wayyyyy too expensive.. i can get the same quality out of springs, even though i kno theyll die on me sooner than coilovers..

are you performing this mod for aesthetics or for performance?

Eibachs have a great reputation. Also, look into TEIN .. I use TEIN coilovers on my car and the quality is absolutely great.
