        ok well first thing is first....what u get is what u pay for. either skunk2 springs or H&R springs are good. KYB or KONI struts u may wanna use. and with 2in drop no camber kit is needed. i dropped my car 3.5in and i do not need any camber kit. only like a 1degree camber. not bad at all for 3.5 soon to be 4 in drop. i got skunk 2 coilovers and kyb gr-2 struts.

          So how is the ride with the skunk 2 coilovers and gr-2 struts? Iam looking more for comfort than performance. Think those will meet my need ro is there better ones I can get for a better price for comfort and less performance.? Iam looking for a good price and comfort.... Got and picks? Thanks for your help

            Great site for your questions:

            http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthre...ate+suspension


            Also what you need to lower the car is:
            -Springs
            -Shocks that can handle the spring rate
            -Camber kit depending on drop

            It is true you get what you pay for. Let it also be known that a suspension's ride quality and handling is subjective and based purely on opinion. The thread above should help you in your search and answer questions I did not answer here.
            "This is a jaded bunch. To gain notice, you have to challenge conventional wisdom, test assumptions, and ignore the naysayers."

                the ride is real good...a little bouncy at first but after 800 miles it is alot better... i do not have the struts on actually...and the ride is better than expected. Def get skunks or H&R! hope that helps. skunks are expensive but they r well worth the extra money
