Listen guys, I'm on a budget right now.

But what should I go for springs or coilovers, for a cheap price, and what brand? that would ride a little smooth, I don't want to be bouncing everywhere?

Remember I said cheap!!!! I'm going to up grade to Tein's or DC2's supension in the future (about 1200 bucks) ouch.

I just need something to ride on for about a year or so.

Thanks,Raxx

Tein S-Techs and KYB GR-2's. Cheap and fine for a vert.

I didn't like my S techs they were too soft, I am now using RSR race springs with kyb AGX struts and cusco camber plates and for the money I have in the setup if I could do it again I probably would have went with a set of entry level tein's.

new springs will do nothing about the bounceing around you need the "shock" element the obsorber is what stops the bounceing around the spring is what causes the bounceing

yeah just replace the shocks with tokico blues makes a huge difference.. if you are going coilover anyway you might just want to fix whats broke.
