I got mine lowered with Eibach springs and stock shocks. (around an inch drop). I wish it was stiffer. From what I have read, the H&Rs are stiffer.

The H&R's are still comfortable to live with, not bone-jarringly stiff, but also not limp wristed.

Original Turbo 'd Auto !!
I used the Tein S-Tech's and so far noticed a 3/4 in drop in the rear and a 1 1/4 drop in the from. Ride is stiffer but comfortable. Still riding on the stock shocks. I removed a 1" from the bump stops (all 4 corners). The handling is way improved and so is the look.

Ride Naked!
I use JICs and dropped 2" front and 1.75" rear. Looked real sweet but don't think about wider tires if you want to go that low. 245/40x18 (OEM wheels) rubbed on the front. OEM springs and shocks are back on for winter.

I used JICs also. Dropped 2.75" all around. Front is adjusted 5 clicks from hardest and rear is adjusted 7 clicks from hardest. Ride is a bit more stiff but not uncomfortable. Well for me it aint.
