I dont think you will find any coilovers for 700 unless they are used or you can find some group buy and the cheapest ones I could find are k-sport for $795 I would just save up your money longer and get some good ones. KTS, Stance, Megan etc

Unfortunately, on that budget you would have to go used. I won a set of Tein hr's on ebay, and am actually waiting for the Fed Ex guy right now. Paid $685 shipped. Outstanding condition from the photos posted in the auction as well as the description given over the phone. Got them from Jarco and have had only the best of experiences with them and their service. I am sure a lot of people talk smack about Tein, but the fact remains, they are a quality company, and the units are available for overhaul here in USA. Something to keep in mind when buying used. Good luck with your search.

just be patient and save up another $200 to get megans or something that's well known...

otherwise go used, but make sure you check them out before tossing them on...

I agree with the other posts about used coilovers... I wouldn't necessarily go Megan Racing because they are cheap... Do some research first, ask yourself what you are willing to commit to your suspension needs, and what the end result of all of this will be. Don't blow 3,000 on coilovers just because they are on the market, nor should you spend 1000 on inferior product because it simply exists just the same. Find the happy medium... Chances are if you can find 700 to spend on suspension, and really want coilovers, save another 700 and get something that will LAST... Otherwise I would spend 700 on some shocks, springs, and bigger sway bars from and rear and call it a day.
