What suspension? Spring and shock? Coilovers?
I am redoing my whole suspension every bushing, and link will be replace, tie rods, sway bars and links,steering rack and bushings.
I am looking for 2" on the front 1.5" on the rear i will be on stock TT wheels
245/40/17 and 315/35/17.
This car will never see the track, will be driven on the street twice a week to work and maybe every other weekend.
I don't want my car to ride like a trash can, at the same time i am not looking for LS600 ride confort.
What suspension do you recommend ? how much does it cost? do you any pics?
I am not a suspension expert so please i need yall help guys thanks in advance.

Try stance. People say they have a comfy ride, while still handling pretty well.
I think the supra eibach springs give a drop similar to what you're looking for too. Maybe do those on some Bilstien shocks? The springs themselves are a pretty good balance between comfort and sporty.
Here's a pic of the drop on my car with supra eibachs and tokico illuminas.

in my opinion whenever i see and feel someones SC with stance coilovers their car is to soft to be paying $1300 for... I have PBM's and I actually feel like i bought coilovers not just a lower look.
i daily drive my car and its actual a very nice ride, my car doesnt feel like a boat and doesnt bounce.

Thanks guy for the all the input i wanted teh gixxer drew but that actual setup was made just for him, it's not for everyone else.
I really don't want no bouncy ride Onejay i like the way your car sits, i just want the front little bit lower .
But i really like the way you car sits, i was think about some stock tT shocks and spring ..
i am still going back and forth on what to get.
The guy from assaultech been trying to convince me to get the Stance i really don't wanna get till i know what am getting, picking suspension for me is very critical this not my field..

I just got some PBM's and I'm loving it. $1000 IIRC, can slam to the ground and are pretty DAMN stiff.
I was looking for Stance/PBM, whichever I could get for cheaper, can't really go wrong with either one IMO.

I don't see why this would stop you from considering it? Any other coils you buy are already pre-made for a certain application so it's not exactly tailored to your specs either. If anything, the gixxer setup can do what you want, providing that you get the spring rates you need.

Just because it was made for one person doesn't mean you shouldn't get it.
whats your reason for not liking megans? just because all the haters say they don't like megans?
For 1,000 you cannot go wrong with stance and PBM as viet mentioned. BC racings are good because you can get custom spring rates.

When i was ordering mine, i asked for custom rates, they can't do 18kg springs btw. Oh, and it was $62 plus shipping for a pair of new springs, which is pretty cheap. So i suggest BC, and i got my coils for less than a grand.
But then again, i still don't know how they ride.
