coilover or lowering springs.... HELP!!

Hey everyone my warranty just went out finally and am stuck. I don't know much about all this and am wondering if I should get coilovers or lowering springs. Thanks for any input.

the way I see it, if u have the $, coilovers are better and easier to install... if u dont have enuf for em, then ur only choice is springs, fyi..Tokico is supposed to release D-spec and some other shocks for 03-04 models in Feb, or so I heard..

I have been hearing about the tokikos d-spec? Are they going to be so good that they're better than Tein? What spring does Tokiko test with?

just be careful which sleeved coilovers you get. I had the DropZones and they're decent but I did feel like I was going to die once or twice on bumpy roads. My Neuspeed Race springs rode very well on blown stock shocks and are even better with the Tokico HP's.

Get a full coil over is better than just getting springs alone. You have more choices on how low do you want than just springs alone. My suggestion would be Koni adjustable shocks with GC. Koni shocks pretty much last you forever. I've had many good experiences with Koni shocks.
