Post Suspension Help!

Hello everyone. I recently made the executive decision to start modding my car...kind of. I asked all of my friends where I should begin to mod and they all said the same thing. Lowering it. Some say put it on coilover's and others just say springs. I do understand the difference between the two so decided to put it on lowering springs. I do enjoy how my car rides right now and lowering it should compliment the parts I will purchase in the future. So my question is, which springs would you recommend for a more stock feel ride but can handle a little danger when in it? I appreciate any help. Thanks

it all depends on how low you want to go. RSR down, and swift springs offer the most conservative drops. then you have tanabe springs, and RSR Super Downs being the lowest.

from all the reading I did, at least one person said the first three feel stock, and the superdowns feel a little stiffer. The ones that felt the best without being bouncy was Swift springs. Again this was all concluded from hours of reading through previous threads.

You will also be replacing shocks as you went with springs vs. coilovers and it is well documented that the stock shocks tend to fail after the installation of lowering springs. You would be much better off having Josh hook you up with the active coilovers! I love mine!
