decent ride quality and fairly priced.
just make sure that whatever you do end up dropping the car at, if it's 1.75" or more from stock.........A camber kit is a must unless you like going to tires every 4k to 8k miles.

Now do you wanna go:
Sport = Under a 2" drop
or
Race = 2.25" to 2.5" drop

Jeff, We are going to go with a sport drop on it just due to the fact I use it as a DD.

Good Choice!
Then I would suggest either Neuspeed or Tein Springs with Tokico Blue HP shocks.
You'll get a nice suttle drop and the ride quality won't really change all that much from stock.

BTW: Tein > Neuspeed IMHO

Well,....There is always Ebay
OR.....You can also do a Google search for each specific product, then look at the top of the search and click on "Product Search".
You can scan down the list and find the cheapest prices, Then go to their site and see what is offered.

Jeff,
What do you think about Eibach, they make a Eibach Sport Kit that I can pick up for $450 or I can go with the Tokico HP Blue with Tein Sport Tech springs for $470. I think those prices are reasonable, lmk what you think.
