What you will probably want to do is go on Ebay and buy a set of TEIN S-Tech lowering springs. They will lower 1.5 in front and 1 in back (in inches of course). When you install these I would recommend installing struts/shocks(KYB GR-2's, Koni Yellow's ect.) this will make those bumps in the road a little less stressful on you and/or passengers. After that the next step would be to put on Strut Bars. I have heard that you can take a Dodge Neons and have them adapted, or buy specific ones. After all of that, then you can have Sway bars put on. I would go with ST sway bars, because the cusco ones are more expensive.
