Hey you guys. I posted awhile ago asking about lowering and stuff. I was going to go with Eibach Pro Springs for about 1-1.5'' drop. Then I was told to get a camber kit. Okay so I have the money for that ****. But then someone recommended coilovers?
What do you guys think I should do? If I go springs/camber do I need anything else and if I go with coil covers what will I need..thanks :]

you need camber kit for both. if you are getting springs like prokit, then you just need shocks like the tokico blues. if coilovers, it has spring and shock in one piece, and that gets more expensive like the tein basic coilovers which are the cheapest i would recommend.

you only really need a camber kit for the rear...
and as far as the coilovers... don't get sleeved coilovers, make sure you get full coilovers...

it depends what you're going to use the car for.. If you just want a good street setup, like gear said get a good spring and shock combo b/c it's cheaper and youll have a more comfortable ride height/feel for street driving...

the front in somewhat adjustable (depending on the drop, they can usually get the car within spec), but the rear is not adjustable at all.

Just get öhlins to custom build you some coilovers. Screw all these "varied" opinions. Go for the best. Who needs a house?
