first mod on tl-s

im a teenager and know that im gonna do somthing stupid so i decided to first get a suspension to satisfy 2 things, hopefully save me from a couple of encounters and get rid of the disgusting gap. what type of springs/shocks/coilovers combo would be the best; i want a good decent drop that maybe looks like it came stock, not a slam or anything, maybe 1 finger gap on stock rims. also, because i know im goin to be stupid, im plannin on some brakes after i do the drop; the rotora and greenstuff good from what i hear????? how do u break in those brakes again?

p.s. ya im not rich, its all luck that im gettin this car and im gonna be saving for a lonnnnnnngggg time so plz dont flame at me and ya cheapest estamite including labor and where to buy would be nice.

you are 15 years old? BS you are if so you can't drive. First change your age. Drop H&R springs, ingalls camber kit. Buy from www.autocarparts.com on this site. BTW suspension parts aren't the cheapest to install the right way.

Always go with a full coilover kit. If price is an issue, go with tein basics, or tein SS since they are adjustable. If you go with springs only, the ride will be VERY BOUNCY and kinda uncomfortable for my taste. And yes, it'll be very harsh on your OEM shocks. So you're better off paying a bit more for a full coilover kit than having to spend extra later on for new shocks... That's my
