OP if all your looking for is a drop

go with H&R sport springs (150 used)

and koni struts (300 used)

Will ride great and look great

if your looking to track your car

like the others said go with KW v2 (1100 used)

I love people jumping to track parts for street cars.....

Look into H&R Cup kit, great for the street.

Do you just want to lower it or change shocks and springs?

If you want to retain some form of factory ride quality, I would dump the H&R springs and go with B&G springs instead. same drop as the H & R but much better ride..

Typically...how much does an H&R Cup Kit run?

I've thought about bitting the bullet and just going with an ST Coilover Kit. People say they're made by KW...just with a different type of steel.
