How far do you want to drop and why? Going track?

Get a shorter set of springs if you're concerned. Brands like Eibach and Skunk2 are worth a look. You can replace the springs on the coilovers so they drop lower.

i got the ebay coilovers on atm, as they say its 4inch drop, but its on the lowest setting with the safety lock collar removed and still not low enough. looks like a 3inch drop at most.
also shockers are dead so i mite as well upgrade to decent coilovers now while i have the money still.

not planning on tracking the car, only planning on taking it drag strips to run 1/4mile and mostly driven A - B daily bases.

Skunk2 was good from my experience.

Eibach I haven't used, but have heard good things.


I like my German sh!t. I run Bilstein coilovers on my daily and my weekender.

You want 4" drop and you're worried about how they'll "ride n stuff"?

Anything that low will ride like sh!t and will probably handle even worse. There is a reason no one makes springs that low - because they don't work very well. Most cars are sitting on the bump stops at that height.

Let's not kid ourselves here - you want it to look badass and it's going to suck in every other way. Not bein' critical, it's up to you. Just don't want you goin' in thinkin' it's all going to end up smellin' like roses because the physics says it can't, that's all.
