how aggressive do you wanna go with your suspension? If you want a subtle drop with nice handling improvement, you can't go wrong with prodrives or eibachs. For a more aggressive drop you can go with perrins or s-techs, at the expense of ride quality and strut life. I have perrins and the drop and handling is great, but ride quality is pretty harsh.

im on cobb sport springs and i love them. they give a good drop, and are not so stiff that they suck do drive on, but still improve handling. also they work with stock struts, which is a plus

BTW, nice car

If you're going to be playing in the dirt get some good mud flaps, they pay for themselves in no time. Rocks really to F' up the whole side of your car.
