I agree with SpeedRacer.

Eibach for springs and Apexi or HKS for coilovers (very expensive though)....

Stay away from dropzone coilovers.

JIC or TEIN for coilovers... Apexi makes some decent ones as well for a good price.

I know H&R does mostly Euro coilover applications, but they do S13 and S14 240SX's, I'm not sure you clod go wrong there. Of course, SCC recently added JIC's to there S13 and love them, for handling not comfort. It depends on what you want, more performance- Coilovers, comfort- shocks/springs. (correct me if I'm totally off on thate someone)

save your money. i have sportlines, and i almost wish i had waited and got some good coils. my car is still not as low as i want it. after the springs are on there for a year or sumthin maybe they will settle as far as they are going to and it will be lower, but right now, they aren't low enough. they've been on about 3 weeks.

yea, so you know what i'm talkin about. a friend of mine has pro-kits that have been on for like 3 years, and his car is lower than mine, so after a while mine will settle more. i can't wait.

OBX tends to sell cheaper versions of other brands, or atleast that's the vibe i get from people.

However, i would buy the OBX shortshifter and strut bar.
