Tokico Blues and intrax super sport springs. give you a wicked drop and are much stiffer than the tein S crap springs.

I went with Progress springs and KYB AGX struts. The struts I got on Ebay for 275 or so for all 4 and the springs were like 150 ish.

springs:

struts:

BTW that seller of the struts has other ---- for sale too, he has some spring and strut combos you might want to look at for around 450-500 I bought my AGX's from him so I can vouche he's decent

Don't buy shocks from Ebay. Most of them aren't authorized dealers, so if something is fucked up you're screwed.

www.shox.com is where I ordered my tokico blues. I've got some 450/550 skunk2 coilovers on them... we'll see how it makes a 1800 lb car handle.

if your going to cheap out on your suspension just leave it stock. get cheap ---- not only give you a shitty ride, but then it also beats up on your bushings, control arms, ball joints and youll end up replacing all that sooner than you would need to. eehh but if you really want to be cheap, keep it gangsta and cut your springs

I don't plan on cheaping out on it. Thats like saying hmt cheaps out on there turbo kits. Im just looking for a good coilover/strut combination for a good price. Looking at around $300-$350 hopefully. I would definatly like an adjustable set because i like my cars low, but if i have to a good 2" drop would be ok. Looks like i will be going for the edelbrock ones. Hopefully that is for all 4 and not just one.
