KAM Racing is a good site to buy from. Make sure you get a suspension kit with uprated dampers/shocks and springs. Just buying spring will affect handeling.

avoid GMAX at all costs lol.
SPAX is a bit more expensive, but worth every penny.

Keep the apex springs, dont use eibachs, will probly end up worse. The apex kit is very good, a mate has them and cant fault it at all. I have billie B8s and kams faulkner springs, very good combo.
