Looking for good shops in GTA

I am looking to lower my car, I am looking for reputable shops (or indiviudals on this site) to get this work done around the GTA, I am in Brampton. What kind of springs should I bew looking at getting. I am looking for a smooth ride and a total of 1.5 inch drop. I will be changing my wheels from stock to aftermarket in spring 2005.

Thanks

There was some talk about this under the Canada East forum
Ive heard Speedtech does good work but check the Canada East Forum to see some other places who can do it.
BTW, are ya staying with stock shocks?

I am thinking of rolling on stocks for now, is this advisable? I just dont wanna pour money into the car right now. If the shocks go after a year then fine I will replace them, but the shocks are perfectly fine so it would be a waste to replace them. Unless I am missing something...?

well you're not going TOO low so aftermarket shocks arent a necessity, however when you do change the shocks from stock to something better, the ride quality will be much better.

keep in mind lowering your car does decrease the lifespan of your stock shocks because it puts more force on them.
