Default what coilovers for my EK?

Currently have a EK with b18C transplant. The struts are getting slightly tired, or I am just tired of them, not sure. The car was lowered about 2" when I got it and I have never really liked it so low, I always scrape the headers on things. I am thinking of replaceing my springs and struts with some decent full coilovers and I would like to spend 1k as the upper limit. Is it possible to get a good setup for this price? I would like to know suggestions and places to purchase. I think I would like to run the car about 1" lower than stock. Adjustable damping would be great, but not sure if that is realistic in this price range. As always thanks in advance.

Teins are great
Tokico has a quality set

Look around and see what you want out of them....Performance, race, ride quality, adjustability
I would definately get adjustable shocks coilovers. Email me if you want some more info or a price on some possible kits

You can get 4 neuspeed konis for about $140 each
A GC coilover sleeve kit would run about $400 (I think) or you can get everything from them.

Or you can look at Tein or Koni coilovers (not sleeves)

Or you can consider Konis with sport springs that would drop about 1-1.5".

For a grand there are several options for quality parts.
