I have heard somewhere that they are just the Ebaich Pro kit with the TRD Brand name on them... but someone else may have to back me up on that one..

They're good, but they're only mild. 1-inch I believe, I'd probably go for TEIN's, that's what my buddy has on his 03 Corolla S, and I believe they're 1.8inch.

Yeah, Tein S-Tech springs are good quality and much cheaper than Eibachs, much much cheaper than TRD.

TRD's drop is disappointing, they dont give a dramatic drop....go with TEIN H. Tech which are 1.8" drop or TEIN S. Tech which are 2.4 inch drop

I have the TEIN S.tech drop and its a comfortable ride seeing as I had them for about 2 yrs now

Are Eibach's adjutable in heights?

Eibach Sportline and Pro Kit are just springs, so no. Ground Control do offer a sleeve coilover kit that uses Eibach coils, and being coilovers, they are adjustable.
