go for H&R race springs and MM caster camber plates. they are the best combo for 03-04s. others will really slammed it down. if you happen to be in Hayward give Mike at Maer Racing a call he's a really cool down to earth suspension guru (510)581-7600. Really good deal no hidden charges.

id go with the h&r super sport on an 03. i had the race versions which imo do not lower the front enough. on my car the front had a tad bit larger gap (tire to fender lip) compared to the rear. i ended up cutting a 1/2 coil on the front to lower it a bit more than the rear.
the super sports ive seen lower the car enough as far as the fronts. the rears id run urethane isolators to raise it up a bit.
here are the race on my old 03 with a 1/2" cut on the fronts.
do a search on svtperformance.com for the super sports...ull definitely like that drop.

Exactly that shit is stupid as hell. Not to mention the fact that you ruin suspension geometry.
THERE IS A REASON THAT LOWERING SPRINGS ONLY LOWER A CAR SOO MUCH!!!!

cutting springs does not ruin them nor the suspension geometry. cutting specific rate springs is perfectly fine since the spring rate is the same through the whole spring. you ruin your geometry by lowering the car too much, which most springs do anyway
