if i got the eibach pro kit would i need to get new shocks and struts or could i use the stock ones?

you can ride with the stock ones for a while, but they wont last too long. if you install them at the same time you can save on time/labor. or do it later just to get the most outof the stock shocks so you can throw them away.

Do you think ride comfort might come back a little after putting aftermarket adjustables in after using sportlines? With my sportlines, ride got a lot stiffer.

New shocks will keep the ride nice and steady or firm fealing compared to what it is like right now...

Damn ok you are right! Time to buy new shocks. What do you think of those 5 way adjustables - the Illuminata (i believe koni or kyb I can't remember which - they have them on the maximummotorsport.com site) I like the idea of adjustable.
