Cut Springs, Or Coilovers?

Okay right now my stock 90 db1 has the front end lower than the back.. the back is prob like 3 or 4 inches higher than the front..

i went to go get my springs cut for cheap just so i could lower my car but it turns out the guy i bought it from heated the springs.. and from what i've been told thats the WORSE possible way to lower your car.. and i still dont get why he only decided to lower the front but not the back (dumbass)

From what im being told i can buy a whole new set of sleeves (cause that seems to be the only problem right now) for $275 and they can cut them for me too.. ORR i can get adjustable coilovers for $500 .. I kinda just want my car to be lowered with a quick fix NOWW soo that way i got the look i want and i can save my money little by little for the coilovers so that way i got my look and i can focus on other things cause when it comes to my car i cant seem to save 100 bucks out of every check (i make 160 part time a week) sooo to MEE it makes sense to just get the $275 and lower it and get coilovers later on down the line

noww.. MY question is.. is it pointless for me to buy BRAND NEW SLEEVES for me just to cut them?? or would it make a difference? or should i just say fawk my look for about 4 months and just save for the coilovers?? cause i only plan to lower the front an inch and even out the back..
I dont mind a stiffer ride as long as im not feeling pebbles or something..

i was talking to my uncles about it and idk how we got into it but i guess there telling mee.. cutting the springs and dropping the car are 2 different things?? is there anyway i can get springs to give me the lowering potential i want and they come out the factory like that? or would i need to make alterations regardless?

do it right man.
Right now I've got my lowering kit for the front and only the springs for the rear.
I'm still waiting til I get my rear struts before I put anything on.
You want it to look AND perform right.

Cut that shit and enjoy the ride :D

Jk, save up and get nice ones or you'll regret it. Trust me, I cut my springs a long time ago on my first car and it's the ghetto way to go.

ebay coilovers and doing it right are far from each other, ground control would be doing it right or Skunk2. Ebay coilovers are made cheaply and plus you can cut your springs if you do it right. But many people dont, well actually no one does except the people who actually know how to do it.
