TireRack.com might carry it. H&R is very good. Their cup-kits are designed with precision, matching propper shocks to springs.

Just so you know, the cup kit is not a coilover. It's just a lowering spring with a matched shock to go with it.

Many people mistake it for coilovers.

Hmm... Their site seems to be down but it's something like 2.0" front, 1.75" rear. I considered them for my car at one time.

Yes, I ran on Neuspeed Race springs for almost 4 years on stock struts. The ride is just a little harsher due to a shorter stroke.
