imo, here are you options:
- coilovers all around
- front coilovers, rear lowering springs plus adj. lca
- eibach sportline springs w/o iso and adj. lca
i have setup number 3. get quality struts/shocks, don't cheap out on this.

Eibachs are garbage. Do it right the first time. Maximum motorsports coilovers and bilstein HD shocks. Only way to go in my opinion.

If you are particular about ride height, it's gotta be adjustable at all 4 corners.

^^^^ before you order hit up mike over at maier racing in hayword. He definetly gave me some good advice. Jason over at mm told me to stay away from my current set up. I have mm's sport valved shocks/struts and coil overs on all four corners. The ride is decent and it handles.......

So i talked to mike and he pretty much told me that if im not paying gim to install it then to just go direct through mm. Even after knowing that i wasnt going to buy from him he still spent about 10 mins educating me on suspension.... Not too many people will do that . So after getting off the phone with mike i called jason at mm and got off to a good start ...bilstein shocks and struts front mm coil overs and caster plates, rear mm springs and isos thanks for all the help guys
