Does anyone have any advice on what the best lowering springs available are? I want to lower it more than 1"

For a modest drop go with H&R Supersports or Steeda, for a serious drop Eibach Sportlines will do. Check out the pics sticky thread, you're sure to get a great idea on the stance of different springs. Oh, and you will need caster camber plates.

why do I need plates? I dropped my 98 GT a couple years back and all we did was swap the springs.

To try to save some $ just do the springs and see if your preferred shop can make it work when you get it realigned. My Eibach Prokits w/o isolators required the plates, which didn't make sense to me because my friend's Mach didn't with the same darned springs, though I think it may have been okay w/ the isos left in. Seems to be a small variance from car to car for some reason.
