i recommend H&R super sport springs. they give you a good all around drop.

well to give you an idea of how low it'll be here's a pic of mine cobra.
i like to ***** my car
after the drop i only rubb on full turns (steering wheel fully to one side)
and the things that worry me most are roadkill and fatchicks. lol

My Cobra has H&R SS Springs, and they rock. I'll try to get a side pic of them up for you. The previous owner did the work, and I know it is a good sized drop.

Steeda Sport springs are also a popular choice. The drop isn't as dramatic as the H&R or the Eibachs but the ride and handling are probably better.

+1. You won't need a bumpsteer kit either. Save your money. Just get c/c plates and you'll be fine. You won't rub or anything either.

I'd recommend coilovers if your gonna lower a cobra you might as well do it right=P. You'll love the way it handles as the a correctly sprung IRS is fun as hell to drive=P
