I would go with the Eibah or Tein springs, both seem to be good choices. I currently have the Pro-Kit set from Eibach on my car, and am pleased with them.

lol, everyone's just posting how much drop they got and that they're happy with them. Does anyone actually have any real experience with different brands and is there any noticable ride difference?

I was going to go with Sportlines but they are more expensive and I am planning to go with Tein HA (same ones I had in the Supra) later on this year. So for now, I will go with Tein S-Techs...I already have KYB GR-2s...brand new in boxes, hehe. Should be WAY better than the stok shocks with Dropzone coilovers...gosh, it bounces so much, I hit the roof and I cannot go past 90 miles an hour because I feel I am not in control of the car.
