My front setup went down a total of 1.8" after I installed the gt500 mounts. Here is a shot I took today that shows after settling for a month or so.
The frpp V6 handling package sounds to me like what you would want. It isn't the cheapest, but worth saving for.

I ran Steeda Ultra lites in my 2005 V6, perfect drop and rake, same with the GT500 Frpp springs. Had the H&R race springs in which dropped it about 2 inches but it was too low for the roads here and there was no rake to the car, but man it handled on rails. Still got them in the shed, only ran a month.

I was looking at that kit but its so expensive. What was the overall drop?
The package has everything, right down to the tower brace, GT500 strut mounts even nuts bolts and bump stops. Drop is about an inch and a half. I did the panhard too, but didn't really need to. It adjusted out to the same as stock.

Thats to much drop for me. I have '20s and its my DD so I am not looking for a dramatic drop, around an inch. I am going to get the Eibach pro-kit, caster bolts, GT500 mounts, and Koni shocks/struts, and PHB. That should give me exactly what I am looking for.

Yeah I am just getting the springs. Actually just bought them here slightly used for cheap. It's going to be a few months before I install them. Have to save up for the struts and shocks. And feel free to text me anytime I love talking all things cars.
