Default suspension suggestions!

im debating on whether i should buy tein stechs, or spend 30 more and get omni slip coils. any opinions here? my gap is about 3 finger up front and 2 in the back after i installed my sprint springs, and id like more of a drop. i need a camber kit either way, so i figured id get everything at the same time.

a set of tein s-tech will run you about $160 and its like a 1.8 drop but they work with your stock shocks and you dont need a camber kit..here are 2 links from people that have already installed them on here, myself and mynmisoli ... < i have this typed out because so many people ask the quesion

if you are going to buy aftermarket shocks too, save and get the omni power full coilovers, they are great.

would a 1.5' drop usually leave about a 2' gap in the front, and 1.5 gap in the back? from the looks of other ppls drops, i could expect .5-1' gap from the stechs right?
