Get koni dampers matey, they are pretty good. as for springs elbich springs are good but only lower your car about 25mm which is a bit pants. If you get a kit at least you know the springs are matched to the dampers

id recomend FK suspension kits, great ride, not hard, good handling over std, and good value for money, give PVD a ring, they usually have deals etc
