First off, I am a new GN member. I have always loved these cars and recently purchased a VERY nice addition to my garage. It already has quite a few performance upgrades, and now I would like to match the handling to the power. From what I have read, it seems either Eibach or Hotchkis are the top 2 options for lowering springs (Hotchkis being the only one of the two for sway bars).
-Are there any benefits of one brand over the other for springs?
-Are there any "gotchas" on replacing the springs?
-Are new air bags needed when replacing the rear springs?
-Are the front and rear sway bars both needed (as opposed to just the front maybe)
These are just a few random thoughts. I would like to drop the car maybe 1" - 1.5" and help the handling. The car already has Bilstein shocks all the way around. Any assistance is appreciated.
TIA
