Paul-
Quite the wordsmith this morning, aren't we?  From
what I hear, the Eibach's offer the best look as far
as stance goes.  Most commonly, they're paired with
the bilstein sports.  Ditto with the H&R and Koni
setup.  From what I know, the E/B is what most listers
use as it's the most liveable.  Being the nut that I
am, I'm going to call up 2Bennett this week and place
an order for some rear coilovers and front abt sports
mit koni double adjustables.  This setup offers the
most flexibility, IMO, and that'd be key for my uses.
(Uses including track/autocross junkie)  I'm
desperately in need of a suspension, or at least
shocks, as my setup has seen its day and then some, so
I'm going to be making this choice sometime soon.
