My recommendation would be Tokico suspension kit with Progressive lowering springs (if you want it lowered that is). Tokico HP's are great, that's what I'm running, there's no adjustability, but honestly, I don't really think I need it, although it would be nice for track days. I've heard nothing but great reviews about the Tokico Illuminas, full adjustability, from hard to soft ride with the twist of a knob on top of the struts. If you go with lowering springs, make sure they're progressive, meaning that the harder you go around the corner, the stiffer they get and the more they work. It's amazing how you feel the springs tighten up even more when you need it most. My kit I couldn't be happier with, especially with front and rear strut bars, it's comfortable, but when you need to smoke a ricer around a corner, feels like the cornering abilities are limitless. Good luck!
