Yellow Koni shocks
Get the externally adjustable
they come in either single adjustable (rebound only)
and double adjustable (rebound and compression, VERY EXPENSIVE)

The also have an adjustable spring perch that lets you adjust the height of the car by one inch.
Right now http://www.groupbuycenter.com has a groupbuy on the
Koni single adjustable shocks for $530 including shipping.
It's a very good price for really good shocks.

The blues would be nice ..for the price..but I wouldn't drop the car more than 2.5 inches ...well unless you like to blow shocks fast

Koni Yellow, KYB AGX, and Tokico Illumina's are the three big names I have been looking at, but, in my case, I am leaning towards the koni.
