I have a 4th gen with eibach sportlines and koni yellows, really like it a lot, if you want to stiffen up your ride depending on 4dr or 2dr, I put in front and rear tower braces to stiffen the chassis (helped out a ton) also lower profile tires will give you a little tighter response obviously due to softer tire material. I have yokohama 195/60/15 on my ride with about a 1"-2" gap in front and no gap in back, its very even and the ride feels stiffer than stock but not bouncy. You can check out my ride in my sig, any suggestions/comments/concerns pm me.

Just a little story to share..
I drove home from the shop with the front sway bar disconnected after putting on my new shock and new springs.(cant find one of the locking nut after install everything) I took a turn with decent speed and almost lost control of my car and slide to the side of the road. It all happen at night in one of the mini-mountain road.
