What kind, GR2 or AGX? AGX is Adjustable and GR2 is not, but either one is still a good choice.

the non adjustable.
What about the king springs?
Is it possible to get "low" on the front and "extra low" on the back?

because at the moment I have the stock shocks with 16' rims and it is pushing the car up so high.
I guess a 1.5' drop should be ok

i got some GR-2s with a 1.8" drop, car rides excellent for the short time i've driven it, true test will be about a month from now :)
also, i've taken a corner at 35 - 40 km/h cuz i almost missed my turn and the car had like no body roll what so ever, felt nice and tight goin thru turns, want power steering tho haha

i put eibach sportline springs, and it is a real nice stance, handles cornes nice too, im on stock struts though, and i think the back right one is blown, when i make left turns, or hit bumps it tends to rub, im gonna get those struts probally then i will post time pics here is a before pic
