full drop from tein?
Ok now I was told by someone that the tein kit would only give you about a 3/4 inch drop because the speeds already have 3/4 inch drop stock. Do you get the full 1.5-2 inch drop from the tein springs? How much will they run me also?

pro kit?
The eibach pro kit and the Teins sound good as far as i can see, but does anybody know if they are safe for the car? Will either of them put stress on the car and shorten it's life? Also, im not looking for a HUGE drop, cuz i drive my MSP around everyday and i need some clearance and stuff like that, but i want to lower it a bit for a good aggressive look -- im not looking to take it to the track or anything. So, which set is best for a good look, nice ride, and durable. How much are they and where can i find them.
Rainman -- are you happy with urs? any probs/dislikes?

Love em
I love my Pro Kits. I was dissapointed with the initial drop, but as time passes they are still settling a bit. I won't have quite a tuck, but pretty close to it (although, I haven't stood outside and looked at the car when it had a full tank and rear passengers--it would probably be tucked then). Sometimes I think that I should have gone with the Sportlines, but others I am happy with the Pro Kits.
The handling is even better with the drop than it was originally. The only problem (same for any dropped suspension) is that you really, really need to look out for potholes. If you hit one at speed you'll think that you broke something causes the suspension will max out. Twice I hit potholes that I didn't see until too late and I had to get out to check whether I had killed my rims, or damaged my fenders.
Other than that, no problems. I didn't have them on until after the winter, but I know someone else with a Protege SE on Sportlines. His drop is more radical than mine and he drove all winter without problems. He didn't become a snowplow or anything like that. I only plan to run my MSP for one more winter, but I am not going to change the springs when I put my winters on. I will drive it as is and see what happens. I would have gone coil-springs for more of a drop, but knowing that I was going to winter it one more time, I didn't cause I didn't want to destroy the coil-overs.
Hope this helps.
