for a 2" drop your probably going to need coil overs.. I have the Sportlines w/ Koni shocks on my car maybe on the lowest perch setting it'd be close to 2" but your better off looking into maybe GC coilovers w/ Koni shocks..

Keep in mind most springs will settle another .25" or so after they've been on the car for a few months, so you'll probably be fine with something like the Eibach sportlines or the Neuspeed kit that has about the same drop. If you want more flexibility than that, get a set of Ground Control coilovers -- good price and quality, also can custom order spring rates if you like...

I would go with coilovers and not those cheap ones. Either skunk2 or ground control. I have skunk2's.

Neuspeed Race spring...very nice ride. The front tires rub in real hard turns though...

I'm using the H&R coilover and shock setup. I think I have a 2 1/2" drop.
