Heres a pic of my car at stock height:
Heres a pic of mine on Eibach Sportlines:
Now, keep in mind, every car is a little different, but this should give you an idea. These springs are 1.7" in the front and 2.3" in the rear, so you can most likely get a good judgement of where you want to be from there.
Read the FAQ here:
http://www.j-body.org/forums/read.php?f=3&i=50260&t=50260
This should give you a good idea of the options available, and if you're curious what each drop would look like, check the registry:

And then click advanced and search by modification, type in springs and select suspension and click search - should show you plenty of cars.
Eibaqch Sportslines + Koni Yellows The only way to go.
yea a nice setup if you just want a nice drop is the eibach prokit. i suggest the yellows too like cts said. i had the reds and i loved them. they are great struts and well worth the money. if you cant afford the yellow you can use the agxs which will be ok for the prokit
not to thread jack but can you get away with stock struts on a pro kit

I would not recommend it at all ... believe me ... I was on stock struts/shocks on Prokits for several months and it was a harsh ride maybe was ok for about 2-4 months but I would just recommend getting KYB AGX & Prokits and installed them in the same time this is just my thoughts on this.

Dave Dunsmoor your car looks perfect. Looks exactly like I want mine to look like.
How much does that setup cost?
If I wanted could I just cut my stock springs?
Thanks

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. Don't cut your springs man, not even temporarily. Read the FAQ like I posted and you can read about the side effects of cutting/heating springs.
I'm in Canada, so its more expensive for me, but I bought the springs slightly used 230CAD, and the struts were 830CAD. Keep in mind, in Canada, parts are more expensive than in the US, not just the currency, but it seems everything is marked up a little even after the exchange rate.
You can most likely pick up a set of Koni's or D-Specs for about 500US, then a set of springs for 200US and you're set.
Email us we can get you a koni + Sport line package price.

why doesnt anyone ever read the FAQ's anymore?
Partly because we call it the FAQ, and there is a FAQ button up at the top (under librar and info), which does not go to the Suspension FAQ in this Forum.
