Well I lowered my car with crap ass cheap ebay (that I got for free) coilovers and they flat out suck. I hate the ride it is gawd aweful...I should have listened to you guys.
I love the way my car looks dropped but I'd rather have comfort when I drive.

Sorry to hear that, get yourself a nice set of H&R Sport or Eibach Pro-Kit Springs

If you want a nice ride and you are looking into struts after you get your coilover/springs situation sorted out my advice would be to not get the tokico blues, but save up for the tokico Illumina's!

illuminas are where its at. ive got the illumina spring and shock setup on my car and the ride is awesome. it was well worth the 450 bucks they cost me.

illuminas are 5 way adjustable whereas blues arent adjustable at all.
Well, I've had blues and illuminas. I've also had tein springs, prokits, skunk2s, maxspeeds, intrax, sprint, and some other one. I didn't think the blues were much different in ride then the illuminas. I made 1 adjustment on the illuminas and that was it. I don't think the adjustment part was worth the extra $200 considering it was never used.

get the tein basic damper setup, nothing better 690 bucks or so and your all set. (well plus camber kits) youll spend just about the same if you get any shock/coilover sleeve setup

Well right now I am in the process of puttin my offroad springs back on, the rears are done and the fronts in the morning...Chaninging out your suspension in a parking lot with limited tools sucks major ass
I will not be buying anything else unless it is TEIN's full coilover setup

you should really get those "slash" side panel thingies... it helps the looks of the 97-99 bumpers a LOT looks good lowered. I don't mind the coilover-type ride, I like pounding my organs into dust.

yes, but which setup? The basics should be the cheapest and the Type flex are the most expensive, I am not sure about the adjustablity on the basics, but with my Type flex, it is 16 way adjustable and with the EDFC ( soon the be installed) it changes to half increments so you have 32, excellent ride quality.

people who go to the track like having adjustable shocks. you can adjust them for better performance (better traction off the line) at the track and then easily change them back for comfort on the ride home.
