Any lowering springs that say they will lower your car around 2-2.5cm or an inch are called lows. Anything that lowers around 5cm or 2inches are super lows. Coilovers are adjustable suspension, you can raise and lower the car whenever you want and they completely replace your stock shock/spring combo. A set of springs will cost you roughly $300 brand new. A set of coilovers will be $800+. Coilovers will give you better handling and more range with your suspension settings than springs.

I live in Sydney so i cant pick those ones up locally obviously
Do you (or anyone) know any good and reliable sites that will ship springs ?
Also, will i need new shocks or anything or are the springs/coilovers all i need to lower my car?

just search eBay man, that's your best bet. Gumtree too.

Edit nvm.

Get those springs rad000 linked. $50 + $50 postage roughly. Pretty good deal.

Best for low funds is springs. from memory tein, king, eibach springs exist for cj's and will lower due to either different spring rate/strength or length of the spring. Safer than cutting. I myself will go with coils. about 1300 for BC RA coilovers which are super adjustable (from just jap). Their sydney office is down south of the airport (not sure suburb exactly...
