Wait for some better advice.

 

neuspeed race

 

not unless he wants to buy shocks.

 

You really need to ask him how low he wants to go before buying springs.

 

Be a better friend and get him coilovers.

You need a little more info before picking out his springs.

 

if somebody bought me springs for my birthday id be pretty pissed...i like to control what goes on my car...

 

H&R Type R's.

its H&R sport and H&R race but the H&R springs made for the type r is pretty stiff and has a nice drop it is maybe a couple cm lower then the Sport but way better.

i'm sure they would still be happy with a gift like that...if not they could always sell them on h-t hehe

 

well, he's been a good friend to me, and he's mentioned a few times already that he's wanted to lower his car...I'm not trying to take control or anything...that's why its called a gift...

 

Thank you to everyone for all the great input..looks like I do have to do a little more research...but thanks again guys!

 

It's a nice idea to buying your friend springs, but not to mention he has his own idea of how he wants his car, if he got springs he would need shocks or what do ever. If it's springs i would tell you to go for H&R race. I had sports and it had a great drop but i heard teh race wasn't too far from it and it handles way better. which is true because my friend has race.

 

H&R Sports for a nice looking yet modest drop so you wont destroy your car going over a sewer cap
