anyway, big differences. there are 3 basic ways to upgrade your suspension and lower your car:
1) drop springs= it is just a shorter (in height) compared to the stock springs. common drop ranges from 1 inch to 1.75 inches. names like neuspeed and eibach are some of the commonly used. average price $150-300 uninstalled.
2) coil over= shorter springs than drop springs but an
adjustable sleeve is added to compensate with ride height adjustability. it has an average range of drop from 1-4 inches. the spring sits on the sleeve which is threaded. common names are ground control and weapon R. average price $200-400 uninstalled.
3) fully adjustable coil over= this is the best one. it incorporates the adjustability of the coil over and the damping action and adjustability of struts. in other words, it comes with struts/shocks also. most of these system are well tuned and balanced. brands like sprint, ground control, bilstein, apex, progress group, tanabe, lead the way. average price is from $800-1500 uninstalled
any of these upgrade will require you to undo the struts. no matter what route you do, install it yourself by following the basic guidelines on this site:
