I'll be changing them on mine when it arrives to either Eibach (if they lower) or Chassis Dynamics (if they do them for a MY01).

As long as you don't mind a firm ride and slightly poorer "bump smoothing" over potholes, lowering springs are OK with standard dampers if they are new and the drop is less than 30mm.

I stand to be corrected of course.

As far as Eibach doing springs, try New Age Motorsport. Was chatting to their owner on chat a few days ago and they will be available soon.
