ok i want to lower my car but if i get a pro kit it is like 225 and if i get ground control coil overs it cost 400. so should i get pro kit or save for 1 or 2 more weeks and get coil overs. also with coil overs do i have to get new shocks right away? also i only want 1-1.5 inch drop

I would get ground controls since they are adjustable and use Eibach springs. I went from H&R Springs to Skunk2 coilovers personally. I can get the GC coilovers for 370 plus shipping, which is not a good price for me, but maybe its good for you?

whoa there keemosabee! get the maxspeeds. my friend had a set of skunks in his gs-t and his $h!t was like hydro's!! and his shocks were good too and you can get maxspeeds cheaper than GC. lindsey(cyan) had max's on his car and he said they were butta! if i was to get coilovers i would get those.

so skunk 2s are no good?? i was just going to order them in a couple of weeks. they aren't good on n/ts ?? i mean if they are better than the others i'd rather spend a little more now and not worry about it later.

skunk2's are a racing coilover, and they use pretty stiff springs for the street (about 550 lb/in in front, 450's in the rear). I hear they are really good performance wise for turning etc, just not that comfortable for driving. Your ride will be stiff if you have aftermarket shocks, but I can stand it...I learned that racing suspensions are Not supposed to be comfortable, so if you want a really comfortable ride, the best bet is to get lowering springs, or coilovers with soft (less performance) springs in them...
so maxspeeds or groundcontrol??? what springs do maxspeeds use???ground control uses pro springs. also what chamber kit did you get chris. i think i will order mine from rre for our cars...not a bad price. but maxspeed or groundcontrol ?????

Haha I'm pretty sure with prokits you'll get a bumpy ass ride too. I got skunk2s and they are pretty stiff. They're great performance coilover though. I watched my autocross video and my car doesn't roll for shit. It's totally flat. It's good to have a stiff spring sometimes too, it'll save you from scratchin your bumper. Try to find some on ebay, that's how I got my KYB AGXs and SKUNK2s for like 400, and the coilovers were already installed.
I heard with ground controls you can choose your spring rate, which is nice. ^_^
