Lowering springs, shocks or chamber kit?

I don't know that much about this stuff, so I have some questions. I want to lower my car, and was thinking of the neuspeed sport springs. Maybe someone could recommend something else. So should you get new shocks? At what point do you need to get a chamber kit?

Thanks,
Cris

If you lower your car you will next shocks, springs, and a camber kit for sure unless you want to keep buying new tires. Dont if your gunna drop your ride save up so you can get all it done at once. Alot of people have different opinions on different springs shox and camber. Neuspeed is a good spring.. I have Goldline springs, Koni yellow adjustable shox, and an inglass camber kit.. Ask around if anyone is selling anything on this forum (black market)

If you lower your car, you will need new shocks...eventually. Depending on how low you lower it, you might need new shocks imediatly or you can just leave your stock ones in for a while. Most ppl here say that if you lower it more than 1.5" you're gonna need a camber kit. I think the neuspeeds drop it 1.75"? so that might be iffy. The best way to figure it out would be to get a tire aligment after your springs have setteled to see if you do need a camber kit. Hope that helps

Thanks for the info, I was reading some posts but could not find exact info. So from what I gather new springs need new shocks, and if you lower it past 1.5 inches you need a chamber kit. I'm picking up some rims this weekend, and I'll see how much of a drop I need. Maybe, I won't need as much. But thanks, for the info, I wanted to see what I was I getting myself into.
