If they are made for your car (and i don't see why they would'nt),but no.... you can keep the same shocks, buut if your going to do a dramatic drop, don't be surprised if your stock shocks go to hell alot faster, cause the stocks weren't made for dropped applications...

You've had your stock suspension with the 17" rims?
Doesn't it give you a pretty harsh ride?

Well, you may have to get some adjustable shock/struts. The KYB AGXs
are probably your best bet. They should be around $400 or so.

Did I hear you say more power? Try some of the engine mods ie, cams, ecu, intake, I have all of these and I'm now just getting to the suspension. Try laying off the cosmetics invest in some power mods.

Yes, that for front and rear. The springs will lower your car, not the shocks/struts. Have you checked www.tirerack.com ?

Why don't you get some Ground Control Coilover Sleeves? They should make them for your car, I know they have them for the P11

You did mention that you didn't want to spend $1000 on the suspension. If you do buy both springs and struts then you'll be coming pretty close to $1G.

No. Only springs can do that.
