can anyone give some insights of suspension modifications to lower a p5 without compromising ride quality and price range.

i have heard good things about eibachs, i personally dont know how they ride but have heard only good things about them. they lower the car something like1.25'' or something, price depends on where you go, but i would say 230-250. spool springs are supposed to be pretty good as well, and spool contributes alot to the website. if i were to get some i would go spool, you get a good ride, a good drop 2'' and a great price for around 199. other than that it is tein??, h&r or coilovers. coilovers get pretty pricey though.
If your going to do it, do it right. I'm a firm beleiver in Ground Control adjustable coilovers(0.5-3.0) drop. Prices vary, but retail is $399. They have eibach springs on them, you can have basically factory height, or you can slam it too. The ride quality is acceptable, not to bouncy or to stiff. Try the skunk2 coilovers, and you'll hit the sealing every time you hit a bump.

I've got Eibachs on my car and the ride quality is still great. I've heard that coilovers offer a crappy ride. Well they do at least in my del sol. But I know the eibachs give a decent drop with good ride quality.
i just got my set of tein S-tech's this week, and will be installing them when i get new struts and bump stops for the springs. i talked to a guy who has a MSP with the tein springs installed, and he said they drop the car a little more than a stock MSP and have a nicer ride with less body roll. i can't wait to install mine
