get GC sleeved coilovers... that way you can adjust it...

if it was strictly for show and you were never gonna drive it... i was going to say remove the springs and let is sit on the bump stops... i know someone that did that before on his delsol

Man don't even do that to an s2k as I would not even recommend it for your beater car.....and yes it would be bad for daily driving as seeing how you'll be bouncing up and down the street, probably end up breaking something............so with that said go out and buy a set of tein spring for 120 or something and leave the stock springs alone........

I have Neuspeed Springs on mine w/ 18" BBS RGR's and the drop is pretty nice. I think it's about 1.5" lower than stock.

As for springs Neuspeed is the lowest drop. For coilovers, Comptech/Koni shocks slam the car.
