1.depending on how low the drop you might need one.
2.Suspension kit doesnt matter what matters is the drop.
3.U can do a lot with that kind of range,u can do springs,and aftermarket shocks,tein,skunk2,eibach coilovers and many more.It just depends on what kind of drop you are looking for.

i was thinking of a 1.50-2" drop on it

u should be fine.

For camber kits I recommend SPC. You can get either aluminum or steel front camber/caster kits from SPC on ebay, user Import Auto Performance.

For the springs/shocks or coilovers, it really matters how much you want to spend, and what kind of performance and adjustability you want out of them. I would recommend PIC performance.

take it to the track. that being said, if you dont want to half ass it then spend some money and get a full coil over setup. ive learned the hard way you get what you pay for. im running tein rs coil overs and they are freakin awesome. my friend tim was using crux coil overs on his dc2 and they were sick as hell as well. both coil over setup's retail over 2 grand, but like i said you get what you pay for. good luck with your decision.
