I would strongly reccomend a set of more agressive dampers to go with that increased spring rate.-chet

Try http://www.pdm-racing.com they have a few suspension package deals set up. REAL complete coilovers usually cost over 1000$. Its really hard to trust ebay unless you know exactly what you want. You might want to consider starting with changing out your bushings as the ones on your car are over 11 years old and are probably not up to standards. If you want a more aggressive spring/shock, strut package I know a lot of people on this board are happy with Eibach Sportlines mixed with Kyb AGX shocks and struts. There is A LOT of info about 240sx suspension mods all over the net as well as all over your local magazine rack now a days. In the future please use google.com and the red SEARCH button up on top of this site before posting because questions like this have been answered millions of times. Members of boards such as this get annoyed with noobie questions so try to read up and post when you think a topic has not been discussed, but please SEARCH first. Good luck with your car.

if you want to replace suspension its gonna cost you. I just did a simple springs/shocks combo of Eibach pro kits and AGX shocks, it cost me 580 for them, then 55 for a new strut mount i had to replace, and 40 to rent spring compressor, about 40 or so in new boots for them, and then several hours to install it all.

Its not gonna happen for really cheap, its gonna cost ya man.

But now my car is very powerful in turns, rides about an inch lower, and its significantly bumpier.
