A few suspension questions.
 

My rear driver side shock is leaking oil. What kind of shock can I replace it with so that I can lower in the future? I just don't have enough cash to dish out for all four corners. What should I be considering? Should I go coilovers and run them at stock height for now w/ stock springs or is there an alternative?

If I do lower in the future, what do I have to replace on the car other than the springs and shocks?

Ok..how bout if I do replace all 4, what else do i need to do? Do I need anything else modified or replaced? Should I go coilover so I can heighten it during winter?

tell yah what just buy buy eibach pro's for like 200 bucks and don't ever worrie about having to raise it at all

perfect cheap struts for future lowering are the ZX2's....~$160 for all 4 - a 'search' will tell you all you need to know.

If you want, go ahead and go to a junkyard and find 4 stock coil/strut assemblies and keep them so you have a lowered set for summer, and raised for winter, and also that way you can mess around a little bit and find out what you wanna do and have an extra set.
