from what ive seen they're ok, but i'd suggest getting a quality set of ground control or similar, maybe even tein basic. ive seen a few nice wrecks from people lowering their cars cheaply. they can just be all floppy and hard to control.

i have dz coilovers and i like them just fine...i ran on my stock shocks and the ride was pretty bumpy but you should expect that from any coilover...i threw in a set of kyb gas shocks and the ride is great...

I could take my springs out completely and have the lowest car in town but its not the best way, haha. Dropzone is OK I guess, havent heard much good about them though.

coilovers have the spring in them already so you wont need springs. If you just want tight and low then go with coilovers... its going to be a rough ride but you will be able to adjust the ride height as you please, usually as low as about a 4" drop

yeah, the GCs come with eibachs, id say around 100 bucks plus shipping on ebay. sweet deal, a lot cheaper than when i was in the market a couple of years ago.

that what i was thinking about
i don't think i need to buy a $800 set when i could get one for $144 on ebay
now if i buy coil over that good but what if i'm only buying the spring what would it do???

the best bet is get what u can afford and what will do what u need. ur rite u dont necessarly need to spen 800+ on a kit. jsut have to remember you get what u pay for as well. if you buy the cheaper kits on ebay you might have to replace a spring or something every now and again.
