Mines and 05.

I was looking @ all the different setups, coilovers and spring products out there, and right now the $$ is way out of budget.

I'm currently getting ready to move in w/the girl unit and that is a whole other expense..lol.

I think right now I'd be happy with some springs for the price, and look into a nicer setup when I find a job that pays me "real" money.

I would stick with your current spring rates, then. Maybe a TOUCH stiffer in the rear, but nothing too crazy.

The Eibach Pro series are apparently pretty close to OEM rates, and drop it about 1".

I wouldn't get just springs and put them on stock shocks... I went that route at first and it wasn't that great as the shocks are not valved for the higher spring rate. As a result of this the stock shocks will go out much sooner than later also.

Just get a set of lower costing coilovers like Megan etc.. You wont regret it.

I run Bilstein PSS9 coilovers adjusted to 1" drop all around. I'm glad I did it right the 1st time rather than just using aftermarket springs on stock shocks. My s2k sees alot of twisties so handling is somewhat important for me.
