did the car throw any check engine lights? i'll check
for you tonight if i can find anything in my helms.
get the eibach pro kit if you aren't going to race it
seriously. it gives a great ride, not too much of a
drop. also, check out www.tirerack.com or www.shox.com
for prices on springs. if you're doing springs you
might as well do shocks, too, cause you'll need them
after a while for sure. and might as well do it all at
once. no need to do the same thing twice. stay away
from KYB's they are cheap for a reason. i know from
experience. look at the tokico blues/illumina's. they
are both GREAT shocks. 

good luck!
