well, if you want to be auto-X'ing frequently and are into that, then i would go sportlines, but your ride is going to be a lot harder..

prokits are softer but do a lot to handling even though its a full inch taller then the sportlines.

so given those facts i think you can make a decision

the prokit and sportlines don't differ by an inch on the EP's. the sportlines are 1.5 and the prokit is like 1.1. I have the prokits with tokicos, however ive yet to put them on. I've only heard great feedback on the setup and its a comparable drop to the mugen SS (as far as height, a bit softer on the ride though).

Not to muddy the waters, but the HFP kit gets good reviews for the price. I was planning on going with Eibach also, but for around $400 for oem springs/shocks that lower the car an inch and dont break your back, sounds like a pretty good deal to me.

hmm i never knew

and as suggested before i would take a look at the HFP, i think the lip makes it look mean and the 1 inch drop etc.
