Definately do it right, do it once.

I have to redo my suspension over winter break

Eibach sportlines should drop you ~1.8" and are relatively comfortable.

Get a Tokico Suspension Kit... it'll cost you $400 bucks, has good quality, and drops it 1.5"

Another thing you might want to consider is that normal springs might not drop you an even amount all around (i.e. driver side might be slightly lower, rear might be lower than you'd like, etc). Might want to spend a little extra money on Ground Controls or Skunk2's

My Dad was the same way when I was in high school. Now he has no say over it. My Dad thinks I'm nuts for wanting to spend $3000+ on an engine swap.
