KYB AGX Shocks ~$330 total on ebay (get some KYB dust boots from tirerack.com. they compress with the shock. on a lowered car the stock boots might rub and squeak)
H&R Sport Springs (1.8" front, 1.6" rear drop) ~$180 total on ebay
and some strut bars would be a good idea ~$50 generic ebay strut bars

yes
i have that setup on my car and it works great
i really recommend getting the front and rear upper strut bars, they help
but yea ebay is great for finding good deals if you know what you want already, but not so good for browsing because you'll find mostly junk

Well, what springs did you get?
I went with the H&R Sport Springs because of the high spring rate. Also, they ride a lot better than coilovers.
