When you rode in it it had the Eibach springs and stock struts, probably
with 80,000-90,000 miles on them.  Now I have the Eibach springs with the
KYB's and a 16.5mm adjustable sway bar.  It rides nice, gave a good drop,
and handles much better than stock, especially if you get some good tires.
It bottoms out here and there, but overall it isn't too bad.  No pogo action
either.

As for comparison between mine and Cris', his is definitely stiffer.  Does
it handle better, yes, could I run faster times in his car than mine, no.
Does Cris run faster times in his car than I do in mine, yes.  By the end of
the day when I get the course figured out and drive snot out of mine I can
get within half a second of Cris' time.  Another good year of experience and
I'll have him ;)

My setup also cost a lot less than his, a bonus for most of us.  Now its
time to work on the driver and not the car.  The car has more potential than
the driver at this point, so I'm gonna leave it alone for now.

Those are my experiences, possibly the H&R's handle better than the
Eibach's, but I've never driven a car with them so I really can't say.
Other than that I'm not sure what is out there right now...
