Planning on changing springs. Any insight would be
greatly appreciated.
I'm looking to drop 1" to 1.5" of ride height out of the car but would prefer to keep the ride quality as unchanged as possible. Which is to say I don't want the 'Chrome Gerbil' to ride like a rail car...
Any comments from memebers regarding their experiences would helpful.

Eibachs are the preferred spring. Lowers the car 1.1"...>>
also you shocks are probably shot too. Either Bilstein sport or Koni adjustable works great. The bilsteins seem to be not as harsh.
Hope this helps,

I'm not sure about the Koni's. But had a set on a Datsun 240Z and was impressed with them.
