If you want springs, Tanabe DF210s are the best drop/ride combo, but probably not low enough to be VIP. Look at coilovers and be sure to ask guys here about ride quality and adjustability on the coilovers they have.

^^^ my two favorite first gens up there.... as far as coilovers, I had HKS Hypermax LS+, when the dampening is adjusted, it rights nice, and i think it will drop your car the most, i was tucking tire almost to the rim and i still had threads left to adjust down to
