Hey guys, thnx you very much for your help. I believe they are the original shocks (I am the second owner) but they are still good. I did a little "shock test" but shaking the car from side to side and it recovers quite well. I even had 4 of my friends hop in the car with me and it still rode great. According to the Eibach FAQ, it states that their springs are designed specifically FOR stock shocks. The URL is below:

When it comes to springs, I've heard Eibach is best. As far as mods go, I would like to keep them modest. I'm not looking for hardcore performance parts, just something better than stock NOT costing an arm and a leg. If someone can provide a nice cost-performance solution, I'd appreciate it. Thnx for your help guys. More questions to come!!!
