i say drop it, but do it the right way. springs, struts, and a camber kit. that'll be around $500 or a little more. lowering your car helps with handling, acceleration, breaking, etc. if you'd rather get coilovers so you can adjust the ride height then you can do that too, but i had coilovers on my old car and the ride quality sucks. i'm going with springs this time around.

for springs i'd go with eibach sportlines. great ride quality and they'll drop it about 2 inches. for struts i say kyb-agx adjustables, and then a skunk2 camber kit to top it off. that'd be a pretty nice setup there i believe.

if you want a nice coilover setup, ground control with koni yellows is a nice setup as well.
