is prokit worth it?
is it worth it? I dont know if it's worth it to pay $600 for a drop that's barely noticible and new shocks (106,000 miles). As for other lower springs, ive herd some bad things about even the ingalls camber kit.

Well the prokit is kinda of a small drop, it all depends on what you want... Like to me i think its stupid to drop 1.5" (prokit) because people barly even notice the drop and you still have a gap depending on what shocks you buy. Im more into the slammed drops, but prokit is more beneficial for handling and performance. With a prokit, in most cases a camber kit is not needed. If you have any negative camber at all with the prokit its prolly nothing to worry about. It's all up to you, I think personally if your buying new shocks anyway to go with something like a Sportline drop. I actually noticed the sportline is even a little cheeper then the prokit on some sites...It also depends on your area if you live in the middle of New York City w/ potholes everywhere then i wouldn't recommend a SLAMMED drop...
And about the ingalls camber kit...It seems that all the camber kits are kinda cheeply made. But they do the job sometimes make a squeak or two.
Also search around the board their is numerous posts about different spring/shock combos.

I don't think the pro-kits are worth it. Some of the 3.0 drops I've seen with the pro-kit looks descent. The 2.3...you can hardly tell.
jamolie has a great price on the ground control coilovers. $270+shipping is really the best price you'll ever find.
Teins are another possibility I'd look into. It's big bucks but nothing will ride closer to stock than Teins.
