I wouldn't cheap out on the suspension, personally if your going only springs the eibach are good.

ride may be harsh or bouncy with cheap springs, I'm not really sure on the apex ones

apex springs are ok imo - fitted to standard oem shocks they should lower the car about 30mm without compromising ride quality too much - I had a set of them on my BB1 grey lude and they were fine. If your planning going out on track them id look for a set of koni shocks or full coilovers like tein, bc or meister r's

I use eibach springs with oem shocks, would recommend these if on a budget

Same here , they are fantastic

I have always used Eibach on my Mr2 and then my FTO now my Lude

all using oem shocks

Plenty of peops use Apex so i would think they would be fine
