Springs and shocks

My buddy wants to lower his 1g AWD Talon but he not to sure:
Should he go sprint springs 2in drop Front and Rear
OR
Eibach Pro-kit 1.25in front, 1in rear

He is going to use GR-2 shocks(got them already) and he knows you need a camber kit for the car.
Where can you get a camber kit for the car? Does he need it for front and rear?

Any replys will help Thanks

Re: Springs and shocks

When I still had my 1g talon I had the SPRINT lowering springs with KYB GR2 struts & rear camber kit from http://www.dmotorsporte.com/. The driving quality was nice but slight rougher at times when you hit bumps on the road.

Re: Springs and shocks

I can attest to that as well, the sprints do tend to ride a bit harsher. If he wants a 2" drop, I would tell him to get the sportlines. The sprints have been great to me, the $250 spring/shock combo (I got springtech shocks) has worked great so far, 2 years and no signs of spring sag or blown shocks, but I think it would be better to just spend the money and get the good shit.

Well remember that there is winter here in the northern states, and if you drop it too much your gonna have real issues going around plowing snow everywhere.
