for 700 bucks that quite a bit for nonadjustables. your money though

id either go cheap for just a drop/decent performance bang for the buck or spend more $ for some stiff/beefy adjustable coilovers around $1000-1600~.

Coilovers suck for daily driving.

If your car is a daily as well as fun speed car, may I suggest a shock/spring combo and save a little dough?

There will be many opinions about this (im sure someone will want to flame) but it is absolutly true.

otherwise id get sway bars, strut bars and just some stiff springs
