Hey i was wondering if anyone knew of some coilovers or springs that are atleast a 3" drop that are decently priced?
Lowest drop for cheapest possible - 6G Celicas Forums
ebay or cut springs 
measure 2" from the top of your springs and cut..
cheapest and lowest..
just expect to a) crash, b) replace all suspension parts shortly there after
cheap is not the name of the game...save your money and get quality

Ground Control adjustable springs are in the $300 area. Then buy new shocks, prefer Koni Yellows and you can run a 3inch drop with out to much of an issue. Otherwise, buy actual coilovers or airbags.

I already have the koni's if i bought the ebay coilovers will that be decent? i ran ebay coils on my civic for years when i had it
i cant believe no one helped this kid out.
get a few or just one really big friend. Get him to sit on car and while spring is compressed take some industrial tie wraps and wrap the springs while compressed. Will lower it and cost you less than 10 bucks!

Suspension is one of the things you don't wanna go cheap on.

How are the Megan springs in terms of drop/price/ride quality?
Amazon sells them for about $100 and Megan claims a 2" drop in the front and 1.75" in the back

See how long that lasts lol
I have heard of people compressing their OEM springs while heating them up with a torch so when it cools off, they are shorter. But this sounds to me like a really bad idea. It sounds like it could severely compromise the strength of the spring, and I don't know about you, but I don't want to be stuck on the side of the road with broken springs. Someone correct me on that if I'm wrong, about it being a bad idea. I'm just speculating.
