Default Neuspeed, H&R, Eibach, or coilovers?

I just purchased a '02 S2k, and would like to lessen the wheel gap a little. I'm wondering what peoples impressions are of the following springs:

Nuespeed: I always thought they were for VW's

H&R: Heard their spring kit is great for OEM shocks. Nice ride/good looks too.

Eibach: Had them on my civic, and they rode great...just didn't lower as much as I'd would have liked.

Coilvers: Should I scrape and save for a complete coilover setup? Which would you suggest; Tein, Apexi, Cusco, JIC, ???

The less I have to spend, the better...but which would you suggest?

Thanks!
Spike


P.S. Anyone know a few good parts sites for S2K's. I'm kinda partial to the JDM style.

Eibach.



Please keep in mind that if you lower the s200 too much, it will perform worse than stock.

Our kit was designed to lower the vehicle, but not sacrifice handling.

Eibach or Espelir. I went with Espelir because I wanted a more noticeable drop.

If you can afford them, get a decent set of coilovers.

If you know you're going to upgrade to coilovers in the future, don't waste money on springs right now.

If you just want to lower your car, then get springs. I personally recommend KG/MM ones.
