Default Lowering S?

I know ive asked this question b4 but im looking 2 lower the s but I keep hearing bad storys about s2000 being very very twitchy at the back end?
Im only lowering the car for the street not 4 track days but cannot afford coilovers so just thinking of getting some springs either Eibach, Comptech or Tein maybe but only if they dont f**k up my dampers?

Cheers guys,

Which MY S2000 do you have? update your profile so we know. If you can't afford proper coilovers then I guess you are slamming the car on standard wheels? If you can afford some new wheels then you can afford coilovers...

Take the springs out entirely.

Everyone knows S2000s don't handle anyway.
