Heh, I asked this same question just about a week or two ago. I, too, noticed the lorinser suspension on ebay. I did a lot of research and have decided to stick with, for now, stick shock absorbers and Kleemann springs. From what I hear the Kleemann suspension is *excellent* and the car "corners like its on rails" but its also a soft ride because it's speed-sensative. The Kleemann shocks are pretty special high-end shocks but they will run you around $1200-$1600. The springs you should be able to get for $500-$600. I believe that they will lower your car 30-35mm. Of course, I cannot actually speak from experience as I haven't ordered them yet (waiting to get a "ball joint" fixed on my car and see if there's anything else funky with the suspension ebfore i go ordering new parts)
