I was wanted to lower the car maybe and just do a lipkit in the front but the problem is trying to find some good struts and eibach springs I really don't want to go coilover they ride too rough

If your engine and transmission had to be rebuilt under 100k, what does that say about the longevity of the drivetrain?

Sounds like you are in great shape. The tranny and engine overhaul just before you take possession is perfect timing boss. Congratulations.
