I wouldn't go with cheap springs....
I would stay with something reputable.

Tein S-Tech Drop is 1.7F/1.4R
Here is info from Tein's Site: http://tein.com/stech.html
Look for Solara

Eibach is 1.6 F/R

The only one I know that drops 2" is Sprint springs. But from what I have heard they Sag over time....

Tein Springs - ~1.5" drop - $160
Tokico Struts - $360
Labor - $100-300

im gettin some from a guy on here..they are Megan springs and the drop is 2"..u might wanna look into those not sure how much they are brand new..but if your gonna go 2 inch drop make sure you get some aftermarket struts too cuz you will absolutely annihilate the stock struts with that much drop

Tein Springs - ~1.5" drop - $160 1.5" just isnt going to do it i dont think...... im going to have to re messure it but i currently have 18" rims and a big gap so iuno.

Tokico Struts - $360 i dont know what these are but from what st.augsolara02 posted it makes sense to get these also.

Labor - $100-300 hmmm i hope this mechanic dont charge that much !!! hahaha more like $50-$100 hopefully, hes a cool guy.

I have the Eibach / Tokico setup, and personally: I wouldn't go any lower. I have problems on speed bumps and extremely bumpy parking lots.

i noticed you have a body kit on yours. doesnt that add about an 1" ? im planning on adding any body kits just dropped but i like your interior electronics. A game cube in your car ? nice i was actually thinking of adding a thin ps2 or a xbox but a xbox seems a lil big hehehe...... im only thinking im not adding them foshure.

Are you talking about me?? or someone else???

I have the Tein S-tech's with Tokico Sturts. The drop is low as it is even without the Kit.

I think if you do any lower you will have alignment problems. I already have a chamber kit in the front and rear.

Some others haven't had problems with the tein s-tech.. But i added a chamber kit to go negative 1 degree in the rear since I went with wide wheels and my rear wheels tuck into the fender.

I say Tein or Eibach should be good enough of a drop. I use to have 18's and they filled the gap with the Tein springs..
