Well, your shocks just look like oem shocks--although they look like replacements. And your springs remind me of Eibach Sportline springs, but I am not positive since they are so dirty. Your'e only hope is to swap out springs. If you don't want stock springs, there are Tein S-Tech springs or H&R that only lower about 1.5" front and less in the rear. But there is nothing there for you to adjust.

your springs look like someone heated them until they compressed somewhat (cheap, ghetto way of lowering a car). i would just swap out the springs. eibachs are around $200.
