I would suggest if money is an issue but you want the car lowered, Just stick with A Lowering Spring.
Ebay, Non-brand Name, Brand Name... Any of those are better then Cheap Coilovers.

Here, http://search.ebay.com/search/search...ngs&category0= There's plenty of choices for under $100 shipped.

If you need physical help or just advice on this topic, PM me.
I've been doing this since '98 and have lowered over 250+ vehicles

You can cut them and it wont ride that bad, not much different then stock. Heating them makes the car really bouncy. Cut springs will ride better then cheap coilovers. Three coils in the front two coils in the back.
