Sort of.  Technically speaking, our suspension set-ups are coilovers, but
not by conventional definition.  Now, to your points:

1) The only shortened dampers available are either coilover set-ups or from
Motivational.

2) Nobody makes adjustable spring perches for our cars other than coilovers.

3) Eibach Prokits blow goats.  Too soft for the drop.

Oh, I forgot to mention in my last message that if he decides to go
coilover sleeves such as Ground Control, he MUST change the dampers
(shocks/struts) or they will not be up to the challenge of the higher
spring rates.
