do you need to get lowered shocks when you install lowered springs or does it depend on how far its getting lowered. cheers

You should anyway.... What ever shocks are in there already are probabaly flogged out... shorter stroke shocks are always going to be better

You should replace them together with ride height matched shorter stroke shocks and springs. As a general rule anyway. That's what I'd do.
