i went with coilovers

i did this for a couple reasons. 1. i had the extra money and if i didn't spend it on car parts id blow it at the casinos 2. i didn't like how much all the springs seemed to lower the ride height, seems you are stuck with whatever you decide and if you don't like it well, i guess you can always buy different springs cuase changing springs is a really fun job.. 3. three out of four shocks/stuts were bad so why not kill two birds with one stone.

now, i admit, once you get the ride height you desire you will probably leave it there for the rest of your ownership. if you use your car at the track and as a daily driver you might change it more often, ive noticed i can change the overall handling characteristics of my car with a 1/2 change in the front ride height. ( i leave it higher during road driving cuase i also have a much softer ride dialed in and i don't want the tires rubbing on the fender.) but at the track i drop the front 1/2 inch and stiffen the ride up considerably. Takes about 20min to do.

either way, i hear ebach springs are pretty good :
