Default ep3 setup...?

i have an 02 ep3 tht is already lowererd to the ground but the person i bought it from seems to have only cut the springs... soo i am looking for a good reliable setup for suspension tht wont let my car bottom out like it does bc the roads in my town absolutley suck! they dont get fixed or anything. i need a good setup for not huge amount of money im gonna try to get my dad to get it for my birthday.. soo wht do you guys suggest?

Your best bet would be to get a full coilover setup, but seems like you don't want dish out a ton of money so just go with some Tockico blues and springs and you'll have a nice setup.

You can fork up some more cash and pick up some D-specs.

coilovers would be best but you can get some skunk2 lowering springs for around 150$. check out these.

Koni adjustables and Ground Control springs seem to be the default setup for a lot of guys.

It's a great ride and nice drop. Don't expect it to be soft at all anymore.
