I had tanabe gf-210's on mine and i liked them alot there is a pic of my car 0n 935motorsports.com underthe tanabe gf210's had a good drop to them but they where a little stiff lol
I think I perfer Coil Overs just to be sure you will be 100% happy
They allow you to adjust hight bias weight on each wheel when calibrating on a level floor also allow for dampening force adjustment.
The reason its good to have options is when your drifting you want as low and stiff as possible.
Having the abillity to set up when drag racing you want a hard front suspension with soft rear suspension.

Eibach springs... predictable, no sagging, just the right drop, not expensive, and ride like a MFer... Using Tokico non-adjustables and poly bushings all around. Love the way it looks (I've used with 17" and 18" wheels), handles, and just feels good when driving (bumps too ;-)
Rsr race springs are by far the best spring imo. linear spring rates(which are also higher spring rate than all the other manufacturers), lowers about 1.5 all around but doesnt scrape.
I used to have H+R springs and although they handled good, the rsr blows them away. H+Rs are lower so they look more aggressive but they scraped my car everywhere.

Had HR&R and now running Eibachs, they're both nice but i think the HR&R lowered the car a little bit more all around. Love my set up right now though, Eibachs + Tokico blues HP
P.S : Sig is when i was on HR&R

Eibachs here. Had Intrax, but they sat too low, and i scraped.
Eibach's have a good ride and look good too- 1" drop rear, 1.5" drop front.

I have Eibachs on my N/A. Ride is nice and firm. Drop is just right, I scrape the lip going down my own driveway, and some other driveways. I only scrape my DP on the speedbumps at school. Other than that, pretty streetable, with no worries about scraping alot. These springs are paired with KYB GR2's in the front, and Monroe Sensatracs in the rear. Overall, I like these springs.
On my turbo, I have RSR Race springs. Supposedly the drop wasnt supposed to be as much as the Eibachs, but it dropped it lower than my N/A. I can barely stick 2 fingers between the tire and fender. Ride is alright, could be more firm I guess? I have big exhaust piping so the lowest part of my exhaust is probably < 6 inches off the ground. I have yet to drive it around very far, except for on a flat highway, so I cant say whether or not theyre great. I feel I might have some trouble in some spots though, since Houston roads suck... I have these springs on Tokico Illumina II's with new strut mounts.

I had eibach and tociko blues, probably closest to perfect for comfort, lowering, and consistent ride. Had RSR race springs, very good but not as comfortable as eibach as they were very stiff, good lowering. I would say they were the best for a track car. Had Megan coilovers, great for lowering the car, but the adjustments on the dampner were fuzzy(inconsistent), and they weren't as comfortable as the others.
Eibach for a Driver, RS-R for a track car, megan for a show car. Thats my .02
