    Springs and Shocks?

    Hey guys, I was going to go with the GC Coilovers, but now it seems that is going to cost from 1100-1500.

    I think I would be better off to go with just springs and shocks.
    I want to go low and stiff, not too stiff but not too soft.

    First there is the cup kit which seems good, but a lot of people say that it is too soft. What do you guys think of the cup kit? Is it stiffer than stock? how much?

    If I dont go with the cup kit, for shocks I am pretty sure I want to go with bilstein sports.
    For springs im not too sure. I am interested in the H&R Race, Eibach Pro Kit, and Vogtland.

    These springs have drops all around the same area, about 1.6. But I hear people say that they drop lower. Does anyone know how low these springs go?

    Also, what would your guys opinions be?

    What are your plans for the car? Are you looking for handling or just for looks?
    The grilles really distract you from the fact that someone took a sledgehammer to the front end.

      a bit of both. I want a good drop, and I want to improve the handling. Not too much, because I will be using it on the streets, but I want it improved.
