1.) What struts would you guys recommend? I've heard Bilsteins and KYB is the way to go
2.) As for springs, I'm thinking Eibach sportlines, since they only drop 1.5" and I don't want to slam my car and end up driving 2mph over dips 3.) After I drop it, I'm going to get spacers so I can make the wheels flush, ya know, to make it sexy  Am I going to need to roll my fenders for the small of a drop?Thanks guys -------------------- taking too long to mod since '09

KYB's are perfect for Sportlines. It's a very popular setup on 6gc. It's not the lowest drop, but it's very safe. Plus the Sportlines still offer a decent ride. Having to roll your fenders will depend on what wheels you get. I had Sportlines on my car with factory wheels and never had any issues, never came close to anything.

I have 17 or 18 (I forget) x8 wheels, I think that's an inch wider than factory if I'm not mistaken. But they'll be flush with the fenders anyway -------------------- taking too long to mod since '09
