I compiled this a while ago:

H&R OE Springs
Drop: 1" F/1.25" R
Comfort: Near Stock
Additional Equipment: None
Comments: Very Subtle Drop without the need for a camber kit or new shocks.(Stock Shocks should last a while with these springs)

H&R Sport Springs
Drop: 1.75"F/1.5"R
Comfort: Harsher than Stock
Additional Equipment: Camber Kit may be required. Stock Shocks should last approx. half their lifespan on this drop.(~45kmiles)
Comments: Even Drop.

H&R Race Springs
Drop: 2.2"F/1.75"R
Comfort: Harsh
Additional Equipment: Camber Kit will be required. Stock Shocks will not last very long with this low of a drop.
Comments: Raked' looked, in other words, the front is lower than the rear.

Comptech Springs
Drop: 2.1"F/1.6"R - new version is same spring as Eibach pro-kit
Comfort: Harsher than Stock
Additional Equipment: Camber Kit may be required. Stock Shocks should last approx. half their lifespan on this drop.(~45kmiles)
Comments: Raked' looked, in other words, the front is lower than the rear.

Eibach Pro-Kit Springs
Drop: 2.1"F/1.6"R
Comfort: Harsher than Stock
Additional Equipment: Camber Kit may be required. Stock Shocks should last approx. half their lifespan on this drop.(~45kmiles)
Comments: N/A

Eibach Sportline Springs
Drop: 2.6"F/2.3"R
Comfort: Harsh
Additional Equipment: Camber Kit will be required. Stock Shocks will not last very long with this low of a drop.
Comments: N/A

There are alot more options now, but these were the most popular choices.

Dont forget that the suspension is the same as a 98-02 accord so look at those options as well. I purchased Hayame coilovers for around 800 and comfort is great. Springs are actually close to fully extended but dont get me wrong all coilovers are not for the person looking for a stock ride. Spring rates are stiffer and you def will notice the stiffness in ride. Hope I could be of help.

tuck or go home

canovers are basically air suspension, which allows you to raise and lower the car from inside (somewhat like hydraulics)
check this
http://www.kiyoshis.com/performance/...er/index.shtml

from what i've heard, they are pretty awsome, besides for the fact that you can raise and drop your ride, its supposed to handle real well, the stiffness is adjustable i believe. i think some people here have it, hoepfully they can chime in and tell you more

i've seen em though, they're BADASS!!!
