Well I don't have any pic's but how much are you going to spend? If you are just thinking about getting springs. I suggest that you get Ground Controls their not that much about $270. Their (coil overs)but, not the real things but they work real good.(from experince) The good thing about GC is that you can adjust the hight that you want 1.4 or 1.5 or even 2.0 what ever you want.

1.4" is not enough for me... I have the sportline drop and even i want it a little lower at times. Thats why im going to upgrade to skunk2 or GC coilovers. Getting springs was a mistake, but eibach is good quality stuff.

I have Neuspeed sport springs (1.75" F / 1.5" R)..and I could still go a little lower. Love the springs, stiff as hell..I'd recommend Neuspeeds for sure! You can get em at a decent price used too..

just get Ground Controls! With springs you can never change the hight. If it's eibach you going with ground controls uses thier springs anyways. I had the sportlines 1.5f and 1.7 in the back and they work good but I wanted to go lower so then I just got GC.

coilover sleeve springs will be more of a mistake than springs. if you go coilover get the full kit. Eibach Pro-kit is nice, dont forget to upgrade shocks. do not buy used springs or shocks

Why that you say?jackasssi about coilover sleeves. Now I know that their not the real thing but for the price I think that it's pretty good.

Besides the Ebicah pro-kit, check out H &R performance springs. Their Sportline (NOT OE sportline) springs will give you a 1.5-2 inch drop depending on thr application. Also make sure to get new shocks like tokico, koni, kyb, etc, as jackasssi said. H & R makes very good springs. Also, jackasssi is correct, if you want coilovers, get the fully threaded coil-overs, like H & R's cup-kit or tein. H & R should cost a little less. Either way, check em out. I don't know of anyone who has been disappointed by H & R products. Lots of the race cars on the touring car circuits in europe use H & R.
