the sportline springs are a 1.8" drop, am i right? well, if they are, mixed w/ the tokico illuminas will give like 1/4" more drop. my car is about the same w/ a 2" drop w/ coil-overs & tokico blues. it's pretty low, especially the front. my front bumper & older n1 exhaust scraped a lot before i started to just avoid steep driveways, and park about a couple of feet away from those annoying tall, cement blocks in public parking spaces. oh yah, you will scrape on most speed-bumps jus remember to angle it on them. the suspension set-up will look good though. have you ever driven a lowered car before? jus curious. hope i helped any.

well i have driven a lowerd car. my car was lowered before i sold most of the stuff after they tried to steal it. well as u can see from my avatar that is my car but i just did not know how low it was. because i bought it lowered and i guess am going to return the sport line for the pros because i dont want my car that low and thanks a lot. well i wanted to know if any one has experience with pro springs or with any other spring that dont lower ur car that much. thanks.

I would go with the GC coilovers, cuz then you can adjust the ride height whenever you want. I have them installed on my car cuz I go to frisco alot to get vinyl and see family, so I lift the car a little bit to handle the hills and speed bumps. Plus when I go to the track and I put on my stock wheels, I can adjust the height afterwards as well.

H&R Sport Springs are a 1.75" front/ 1.5" back drop and they are good springs that basically match the eibachs, they are actually a bit stiffer i believe but both of them are basically the same quality spring.
