Got any pictures? Could be your springs or could be your struts, but I have a feeling its your springs too. If your looking to lower it, now would be the time to lower it with some quality lowered springs and might as well change out your struts too, they're probably due for a change. I have a 98 ES and my struts are all weak, lots of bouncing when driving. But, I'm planning on lowering it with coilovers, so I can adjust the height and ride stiffness/quality anytime I want. As far as where you can get springs and struts, go to ebay for good prices or the vendors here on CL. Good luck!

You're going to have to get new aftermarket shocks as well if you plan on going the spring route. I believe the sprint springs give you 2 inches all around but I had the tanabe df210 and thought they were decent. I would just go the coilover route but that's just me. Regardless of the springs you get, you need to get aftermarket shocks as your stock ones won't last more than a month or two if you're dropped that low.

Coilovers arent cheap, but the best bang for the buck and also level of convinence on making changes.
