KYB gr-2s (warrantied up to a 2 inch drop.) and tien s tech springs.
Give you about a 1.9"drop in the front 1.5" in the rear I believe. Check my profile for pics thats what I'm running. But if you're planning to get coilovers, and just want to drop it while you wait, I'd honestly say wait and get coilovers. Springs don't add a whole lot for performance, they're more for looks. If you're looking for both get coilovers. You can get a decent set of coilovers for a couple hundred bucks more than a spring/strut set up. S techs are about 200 plus shipping on ebay, and gr-2s are about 400 plus shipping on ebay as well. You can probably get a decent set of coilovers like bc racing, megan, or ksport for about 800 to 1000. If I would have known this at the time, I probably would have went with coilovers. -------------------- -Protection mode, For when your amp tries to blow its load. 1995 Toyota Celica GTS - Daily Driver 1999 Chevy Cavalier - Winter Beater 1994 Honda Civic CX Hatchback - Dead My Celica! |
