Springs will likely be more comfortable than the Buddy Club N+.

Cheap coilovers are going to hurt handling, not help it. The OE dampers are actually really really good. If you just want to lower the car for a bit of extra handling improvement while maintaining ride quality, get springs.

The Eibach pro kit is 20% stiffer over stock ap1 spring rates, so you will get sharper handing/turn in and a little more harshness with a 0.8" drop. I ran them way back in the day and they are a decent viable option for your desire. Save your money until your ready to step it up beyond the N+ level coilovers. The next level Buddy Club Race Spec would be a fine choice.

There are no eibach pro kit in stock in Australia sadly. I was thinking about Swift springs as an alternative. Are they any good at all? I was thinking of swift spec s. I cant stand the wheel gap any longer
