Since you want a smallish drop in your ride height I would suggest you pick up some Koni single adjustable shocks from Stranoparts.com. The front have a lower perch you can use to to drop the front 3/4", and you can use the "heater hose mod"(search if you don't know what it is) in the rear for a 1/2 to 3/4" drop.
This will provide you with a drop and dramatically improve handling and overall feel of the car.
The stock shocks are by far the weakest link in our suspension, and replacing them will gain you the best results in handling and ride comfort.
Will that's fine i'll buy the set the suspension and the shocks. I do want some lowerage just not to low where my exhaust rubs on every bump. What's a good place to buy from.
