This is my car with about 3 inch drop with megan coilovers.

Edit: Forgot to mention this was after a huge weight reduction and full poly kit.

KYB-GR2's with MR lowering springs (2" front, 1.9" rear). Just a note, your front struts are good for about 1-2 years tops with this setup.

Just keep in mind that you can't go as low as some of the pics above on just a set of lowering springs or stock style struts and coilovers. You will need a true coilover setup.

Alignment you can make or buy rear upper control arms for camber. Toe is good to use the rear toe elim kit.

Why is that sir???[/QU

Isnt this because coilovers are adjustable with the lowest setting giving you more drop than the strut/spring combo? The set up you wanna run is only going to sit at one height until you change something.
