get springs. other than that i guess you could snap up a set second hand, or get a 2nd hand set of mugen coilovers (not height adjustable from what i remember)

but with springs... dont you have to buy shocks as well? cus itll be likely to bust the stock shocks anyway?

i've been running lowered springs a year and a half now and im still fine, was much under your budget, and i have a spare set of stock shocks if anything goes wrong. springs are fine. the springs that ruin your shocks are choppies.

also what kings were they, low, superlow, or ultralow (the lower you are the harder it is on shocks)

How flexible is your budget. For about $900, you can get koni yellows and eibach pro kit springs delivered to your door from the states.

I think they would've been low. Do we need special equipment such as spring compressors to install them?

You will just about always need spring compressors to put them on shock or you can use g clamps but its super dangerous
