Search function comes in handy... Can just search 'lowering springs' and you'll find a bunch of threads on them.

But i'm sure for both 300/400 DF210's drop the lowest.

Daizen grops lower than DF's and i think Espiler does too. But i have df's and love them, but would have gone with daizen if i had to do it over again. *edit i would get coilovers if i did it over*

Daizen drops 1.9/1.7
Tanabe DF drops 2.0/1.5
KSport 2.0/1.8
Megan 1.9/2.0

He's the only one I know of with Megan springs. I exchanged PMs with him a while ago on those springs, but I deleted them a while ago. Forgot what he said about them.

EDIT: Here is a thread with a few guys with Megans:
