I prefer Eibach as Neuspeeds are very bouncy.

i did many searches and didnt find much.

but i wanted to know how low 1.5-1.8 inches of a drop really is...

as of now.. i bought the car lowered and dont know the rates or whatever but i have 18s on my car and can barely fit a finger in the wheel well and the wheels are tucked. i wanted to know if the teins or nuspeed will bring it up a little.

i like nuespeeds.. sitters bf has them on his jetta and it rides nice and tight.

lots of cars dont sit at the same height at all 4 corners. the only way to have all 4 the same height is with a coilover setup.

Eibach pro-kit is great springs but little high on price. Sprint are extreamly low springs and they sag. H&R is ok but little high on price too. Tein s-tech and tokico shock is da set up i have on my eg hatch and i paid around 500 plus shipping, the teins were around 180. i love the set up i wouldnt change for anything else(i had eibach pro-kit before.) i didnt get da teins cuz it was jdm, i got it cuz i was in da same shoe you were in and now im very happy with it.
