If all you want is drop, coilovers are overkill. Find a spring which has a drop you like and grab some AGX's and you've get a cheaper setup that probably isn't as harsh.

i've read a few good things about stance. Pretty new, but i don't like bushings on the bottom instead of pillow balls.

Sorry I've already been through some Gr2's and springs, the drop wasn't enough, and ride wasn't rough at all, I'm not doing that all over again....I don't mind having a too rough ride

Because AGXs will drop an S13 from "holy balls is that thing gonna flip?" tall to "Hey, my grandma would like that" mediocre.

If all you want is a drop get D-Drugs. Decent quality and they go LOW.
