no stock struts with new springs, not only will they all be blown in a week, but your back will thank you, not bouncy, harsh + jarringwould be the best explanation...order new struts and then put them on as one.

you must be referring to those "coilover" sleeve type kits, which are total and utter crap. They are the last thing you would want for drifting. Nothing like a slipping and cracking sleeve when you are heading for a cement wall at 50+ mph. you'd be beter off with some simple sport shocks and stiffer springs, or even stock over those. what you really want to fully adjustable REAL coilovers. They are getting more and more affordable every day. maybe save for those, or settle for shocks and springs. springs arent much good with better shocks though. If you have to, get the shocks first, then springs. I like Koni adjustables, KYB agx. Then there are tons of springs out there to choose from.
