cut the front ones and use st165 front inserts to keep them captive, you will need to space them up in the tubes, use a32 rear shocks and springs with x8 tophats at the back (bit of dodgyness here and there... some washers to space some gaps im sure you can sort it), sits real low (80mm or so) only downside is the a32 shit is soft so stiffer springs might be a good idea. cheap way to lower it anyway.

thats what i did to my mates car shown here:

Or use S14 stock springs front and back for a 4 inch drop. They replace stock x8 springs and are dirt cheap. Use MA70 rear inserts with the cressy top hat to stiffen shit up . Thats my current setup with the only difference is me using tein s techs up front cuz it sits slightly lower and a MR2 sway bar out back.
I suoprt pulik ejukashun!
