Do a search on this and you'll see it's a much discussed/asked topic. Cheap Ebay coilovers=sh*t. Quality dampers/springs=good....
unless you want to invest in some decent coilovers Gaz etc,
the you would be better off, gettign some uprated shocks, and a set of lowering springs the H&R cup set sounds ideal for what you want.
lowering an e30 excessively, just leads to numerous headaches and lowering it on cheap tat like jom will cost you time and effort in the long run. when you have to replace not only your sump but also ridding the car of the jom setup

well the same principle will apply to the suspension for the e30, as youv said cheap doesn't normally mean good.
i have a set up apex springs if your interested. also some avo rear dampers, no fronts though.

TA-Technix (hottuning) shocks and springs - 60/40. Best of the budgets.
Don't just stick some lowering springs with your original shocks, it'll make you sea sick, or break your spine.
