Plenty of input on them...the general consensus is that they are crap and should be avoided at all costs and are a "plague to the mx-3 community"

I can't tell if this is a joke or you have something wrong with your brain.

You'd be better off making your own springs, then going with dropzones.

I would recommend Intrax... lowest drop available (1.8 I believe) and closest ride to OEM. I am using KYB-GR2 and have been extremely happy with this setup.

I have KYB GR2 struts with B&G Springs (1.5 drop) and they work great. Soft but tuff.

I'm glad to hear it, I was moments away from suggesting slinkies from the dollar store ;o You can't go wrong with a good slinky, they go for ever... and ever... and ever... and if they fail, buy them 4 for a dollar. :)

I had dropzones on mine with tokico blue struts and the drop was a lot lower than I wanted. Here's a really old pic of the car on stock wheels/tires with dropzones.

Almost 2 years later and he finally decides!

Quick, someone give him spring rates, otherwise it'll be another 2 years!
