how much money do you have to spend? keep in mind you'll need springs and shocks plus an alignment and possibly camber kits.

i thought coilovers were named as such because the adjustable sleeve for the coilsprings sits over the shock........? don't get springs.... they're a waste of time. get coilovers, skunk2, and groundcontrol are the better brands. the advantage is that you can have the same spring rate as a coilspring setup (which allows equal weight transfer control), but also have ride height adjustability to improve your acceleration and center of gravity. if you're going to get shocks while you're at it, then save up and get a proper full-coilover suspension like the tein type-ha's

it's the truth bro, u really need it all in the long run. camber kits save your tires, and better shocks r good to have so u get a better ride. an alignment is necessary after all the parts r on, to keep your car driving straight and to make your tires wear properly. :thumbup:

that's a negative bro. tein HAs are discontinued. as far as springs being a waste of money, you're tripping. coilover sleeves have high spring rate because they are a lot shorter springs.

i dont think full coilovers is right for him anyways. he doesnt seem like he needs something to that extreme. a simple spring/shock combination will be more then enough.
