You could go with the KYB GR2s and the Eibach Pro Kit. That's what I'm running. It's okay, but I wish the shocks were more stiff. hehehe.......i said stiff. biggrin.gif

Anyhow, I'm not sure about the sportline springs. I'm pretty sure it's a lower stance than the Pro Kit, but I don't know if the GR2s are enough for those springs. You may need to step it up to the KYB AGX adjustable shocks or something equivalent.

Someone else with more wisdom needs to step in here and stop my rambling and post whoreing (sp?) Whoring? Hoaring? Ho-ring? Car Ramrod? huh.gif

If you're looking for a good set of springs, the Eibach pro kit are what you want. Many people say that the sportlines are only good for the super low drop, and not much else.

For springs, I'd go with the KYB's either the AGX adjustables, or the GR2's if you're really strapped for cash.

Pretty much the prefered setup for most DSMer's.

I've got a used set of Progress Springs for sale, if you're interested. I've also got a used set of rear GR2s that I'm selling.
