The same is said for my car. I plan on picking up some Espelir springs from Evolution pretty soon... let's hope I have some money left over from my voyage into NYC.

yeah i found mine on e-bay too. great price, if you don't get the springs from Evolution you should check out the eibachs on e-bay. it will end up being about $225 shipped. good springs from what i hear. have fun in NYC!

(1) 18's good for show, suck for go... slow the car down and you'll rub (not constantly, but over bumps and such) with just about any spring, unless you get the Koni adjustables, Comptech or Spoon
(2) If you do get springs, then Eibach or Espelir. Espelir are sold by Evolution, a board sponsor, with excellent customer service and price
(3) If you run 17's i.e. Alex and you don't want a gap, then get different springs and the Koni adjustable shocks. You can go lower with just springs i.e. the Neuspeed, but you'll kill your shocks and the car will ride like a go-kart. The KG/MM (?) are supposed to lower a good amount also. I have the Tanabe (1.3-1.5inch) and there is still a gap.
Just 2cents from a person that has already researched it extensively.

wow, thanks for all the great advice, steve. i have already ordered the eibachs though so hopefully they will work out ok. you said that my wheels are going to rub a lot with the 18's? what about when i put the stock wheels back on?
