H&R sport springs and Bilstein sport shocks + #2 pads all around.
That should do it for you. ;)

there are a lot of different combos, I have H&R sport springs and Blistein sport shocks, don't remember the pads and the lower is good

if you want the not-so-low look, get the euro spec springs plus #1 all around

I would think he's already riding on euro spec springs, after all
he's located in Scotland.

i myself have h&r springs with stock shocks but i replaced the front pads with # one pads so it sits right. from what i read on here h&r are more aggressive (firmer)then the eibach springs.

do these rubbe pads come with new springs when ordered or is this something that needs to be purchased from the dealer?

you can use your existing pads depending on how high you want it to sit...lowest pad is #1, highest is #5 and no, it doesn't come with the springs when you order them, you can get it from your dealer for $7/ piece
