could be crappy springs/coilovers/ or maybe blown shocks it all depends on his type of suspension setup.!

The ride is supposed to suck in a lowered car.

He probably doesnt have aftermarket shocks. with those lowring springs. Rides pretty good on tein s tech springs. Of course not near good as stock but whatever. Coilovers ride perfectly fine. (I had tein ss fullcoilovers, excellent ride, stiff) Sleeved coilovers will ride crappy with oem shocks. I can live with little bumpy ride.

I'm giving you this advice totally blind, but get adjustable Konis or whatever those ads are for where they say "Auto-x... Drag Racing... Hot Date" and they have a gloved hand turning a **** to adjust the ride stiffness. You can set it really stiff for driving around town, and then soften it up for those long trips. The only downside to this is that you're gonna be spending a lot more money. It'll probably be closer to $800 or more as opposed to just $200 for springs.
