That's the most popular kit, it really don't matter, after market springs are aftermarket springs. You going for the 2 inch drop?

I dropped my 94 GT 1.5 inches with BBK springs, they worked pretty well.

Have you ever replaced your brake pads? If so then you are half way there to installing new springs. It is not hard, just dangerous if not done right. You will need to rent a spring compressor if you don't already have one and take your time. The last thing you want is the spring to pop out and hit your car, much less yourself.

The most popular is eibach and if your dont plan on turning your car into a corner carver then all the other springs will be just more expensive and do the same thing you are looking for...a more agressive stance.

If you do want a corner carver then look into getting the proper spring weight along with the matching struts/shocks.

I'm saving for H&R springs

just go to your local auto parts store and buy the spring compressors there. thats what i did, the compressors were pretty cheap and you only need to use them for the front. the rear is easy and you dont even need them. just jack up the car put on jack stands. jack up the rear diff. a little bit, undo the shocks and lower it and there you go. you might have to pull down the rear a little bit but its easy. i think it took me about 2 hours to do all 4 of mine. just take your time and make sure you get the spring compressors on there right. they can be a little tricky. good luck
