Unless you're willing to spend around $2k or more on coilovers, you'd be better off with a good shock and spring combo instead. RCE Yellows with Bilstein B6's are a great setup for performance. For a little more lowering, Swift Spec-R's are nice. Whatever you do, don't go lower than 1" on stock shocks.
