depends how long you want to go, but you cant go wrong with eibach sportlines.

the only shock i can recommend for DC5's would be koni yellows. they are quite expensive but worth every penny, IMO.

personally i have neuspeed race springs, bit low and quite stiff.

I was thinking about Neuspeed race springs. Can the Koni's handle it? I was also thinking about Ground Controls.

i just checked konis website, and it looks like you would need to cut up the stock shocks just the same as i would have to on my car. :hsd:

only other shock option would be the tokico d-specs, which is what im running with the neuspeed race springs.

I decided to go with Koni yellows. I am worried that if I get the nuespeed race springs that they will blow the shocks too fast but I don't want anything that lowers the car less than 1.5". Do you have any pics of your drop?

OTS Koni Yellows can handle up to 600 lb/in springs without an issue. Neuspeed Race springs aren't even close to being that stiff. If you are that worried about the rates and ride height, get GC coilovers in a custom spring rate so it can be lowered to exactly the height you want.

I'm not worried about the drop. What's a good spring rate for daily driving.
