I've got the Intrax Springs on my TA. They lowered the car 2".

Car looks amazing, but scrapes on everything.....O well It's a sacrifice.

You could always opt for Coil-overs, that way you can "tune" it exactly the way you like. A little more expensive than buying a new setof springs, but after you have bought 2 sets, it almost pays for itself.

Ground Control for coil overs. You can get what ever spring rate you want.
