You can get adjustables from Shocktek

The guy actually knows what he's doing too. You'll need to provide info like corner weights, spring rates, etc for him.

Adjustable for compression/rebound (stock class requires identicle height).

Nope, not identical. Read closely, performance trick...

You are allowed some variance. If you choose carefully you can get some serious drop with factory sport springs matched for height and the lower mounting points, and full-adj. of the suspension. Some smart guys can get a significantly faster car in stock than SP. Of course, some guys even do custom part "adj." with a torch.
