Try the picture thread, a few guys were running sportlines IIRC.

The rear drop is very nice and low, but the front has a lot of gap. It's an uneven drop, which is why a lot of people cut a coil off the front spring to even out the stance. Here's Allen's old setup (hope you don't mind me posting this haha).

Front: cut 1 coil off sportline
Rear: uncut sportline

FYi, you probably don't want to mix sportlines with GR-2's

those struts were designed as OEM replacements for stock spring rates and height and will probably blow if used with a 2inch lower drop and higher rate

go with Koni Yellows or KYB AGX's, why cheap out and cheat yourself and your car?
