they dont make your car bouncy. he said stay away from coilovers if you dont want to spend alot because theyre expensive.
coilover sleeves off ebay, with stock struts or something eqivilent that dont allow for drop is what causes bounce.

It's all relative when talking about suspension. You are going to get what you pay for. If you want to cheap out on your suspension, don't expect for the best performance.
To the OP's question, you should try searching first and then if you don't find your answer, try posting this in the suspension section. They might be able to guide you a little bit better.

Of course Youre gonna get what you pay for.
But IMO, if you dont spend atleast 800-1000 dollars on a Coilover set up its not going to be worth it.
You can get a fine spring/shock combination for 600-700 dollars and not have to worry.
I myself have these on my car and are perfectly happy.

Skunk2 is nice, I think theyre is a better bang for your buck though.
Edit: I live in NJ and visit Jersey city often. A 1.5 inch drop is enough for me. The roads suck.
Most people would like more.

You can also get a nice one piece coilover setup for around that same price and get equal, if not better performance. Brands like Omni Power, K sport (
), Function and Forum, and Skunk2 ( ) all sell one-piece coilovers for a decent price and perform perfectly fine. Nothing is wrong with a spring/shock combination, but I love one-pieces because they look cleaner and are well...one piece
