Lowering An RX-7

I would like to know what is the best equipment or method to lower an FD.

At the same time I want it to look as stock as possible.

Thank You for your replies.

Go with Koni Shocks and RSR Down Springs. There is also the new Tokico HTS Shock/Spring combo.

Mahjik, have you tried the Koni/RSR combo yourself? If so, what are your thoughts about it? Which perch did you set them at? I recently picked up a set of Koni's so I'm looking for a set of springs to go with them.

No, I have not tried that combo myself. If that combo (and my wallet) was available when I did my setup years ago, that's what I would have done. What do you use your car for? If you ever do any AutoX or road course, I would recommend just getting some Ground Control Coilover sleeves to go with your Koni's. If you only drive on the street, the RSR Down Springs will give the car a nice stance.
