Eibachs are in my opinion the best springs around. C&R and TSR do them, look on the links page on the main part of the site.

then no point gettin Eibachs if you want it lower than 30mm

Raceland do a coilover setup for ?250ish that will allow you to drop anything upto 80mm (jsut ring them)

Gaz, Eibach 30mm setup
