What is the best bang-for-the-buck lowering spring for a daily driven 2.3 notchback?
I am willing to sacrafice comfort for looks... I pretty much want the lowest drop...

So far I'm leaning towards Intrax w/ a 1.75 in drop for $170...

Any suggestions?

If you are lowering it that much you definately need caster camber plates, and offset bushings. If not you will wear your tires quick!! There really is no real cheap safe way to lower your stang. Look for used parts off of here and the corral.net

If you're looking for cheap, cutting them is damn near free.

the lowest spring i have seen on a fox body stang are the eibach sport line springs and cut a coil on the front ones and put no isulators that will put it low or you can just cut the springs here is a pic of my old 5.0 notch with cut springs. bad ride but super low.

Ha, ya shauns was pretty fuckin low. Just be careful how big of a tire you want to run. My wheels didnt fit under shauns car when it had those springs.
