it depends on what coilover you get. once again, do a little research. do you have an s2000? i only ask because 99% of these questions are asked by people who don't have one.....

it ranges from couple hundred to couple thousand, the better question is why you want it to lower in the first place?

do you want it just sit lower and ride on the street?

or are you cornering some crazy G on the course?

It isn't necessary but shocks are good to upgrade as well.

not necessary to upgrade shocks but there have been quite a few people whose shocks go to the tubes after lowering on springs. koni yellows ftw.

look im a big jdm typa guy but my **** budget blows....im think of going H&R, like they all said, it all depends on what you want. are you going some crazy cornering, autocross fujiwara takumi **** drift, tokyo extreme racing typa stuff. or are you just looking to ride low. and research.

It really depends on what you're going for. I like the stock suspension, it's nice and stiff.

And be careful of coilovers. If you do decide on CO's, be sure to have them installed properly with all the height adjustments exact. If they aren't exact to the T, you'll be f--king up your ride!!!

Forrealz. JIC Suspension is one of the nicest kits out there for our car.

Is anyone on this forum running the Eibach pro kit on stock shocks?

I haven't found what the spring rates are on them, and if they are progressive or not, but at a 1" drop front and rear they seem like good bang-for-the-buck lowering springs.
