Can't find Eibach Springs (1.1" drop). I can get Neuspeed (1.25" drop)......
but I'm not sure if that is too much of a drop for the CPT control arms (lower only) that I ordered. NE1 with the Neuspeed springs, I would appreciate your help.
As a matter of fact, even if you don't have the Neuspeed, I would appreciate your comments as well.

There are also differences in spring rate - Neuspeed and H&R tend to be a bit stiffer
and Nuespeed drops the car level - but H&R retains the factory rake. CPT arms will be fine for camber - but might have issues with toe - really depends on the car and the shop doing the alignment.

"second" to Joe's comments...
1) a little rake is good for handling
2) I'm down 1.5+ in the back with adjustable lowers only... I've had no problem with camber 'n toe adjustments. But I find the same as Joe, this can vary car to car
3) Over the long haul, IF you're ride "sensitive" I think you'd like the Eibach springs best

Re: try shox.com?
Before I checked with shox.com I was trying to decide if the Neuspeeds made any sense to me.
Here is why. I can get the FSD/Neuspeed combo from MJM for $750. The FSD/Eibach combo from shox is $893, if they have the springs in house. The manufacturer says that they are back ordered.

I have Eibach springs and the drop is very small with Bilsteins
I live in Boston so keeping the ride comfortable for daily driving was a bigger concern than going lower. The bilstein eibach combo is superb, but I do wish it was a little lower. I believe that using Konis will allow the car to sit slightly lower. If I were to do it over again I would do Koni/eibach or coilovers.
If you are concerned about the CPT arms not being enough, do a full k-mac kit, thats what I did.
If you live in an area with good roads or you have a high tolerance for discomfort you have many options. Is your TT a daily driver?
