Depends on what you want out of ur car. Do you want to lower it just for looks, do u want full coilovers, do you want handling ?

I am rolling on Tein SS b/c they are the **** in the corners..... and they are affordable for what i want.

I'm rolling on TeinSS too because they are perfect for daily driving. I set the damper to really soft and they ride great on rough roads.

I've got Goldlines on stock shocks that are blown.

Thinking of either getting a set of Hayames, B+Gs, Tein Basics or Ground Controls + Tokicos.

all you folks with springs/koni struts...did u install the konis yourself? if not, how much did installation cost? I want some neuspeed race springs (want to go all the way down!!!) which will most definitely require some koni struts...so how much for the install if u didnt do it yourself???
