Default comes to coilover suspensions

when it comes to coilover suspension setups what is a good range basic setup for weekend drag and maybe a lil auto Xing. i want to revamp my suspension since its shot practically and its been time to get teh suspensino up to par wit the rest of the car.
i was thinking a basic tein setup but it doesnt have a damper adjustability. does it really make a dif in the performance of teh car or would a setup of skunk2 coilovers w/ adj tokico shocks werk just as well?????

any help in setups and or brands would help thanks. i am lookin really to not spend overly too much on suspension so any advice on a good priced setup would help.
thanks

Heads up:

Tokico Blues are very soft and will suck *** with Skunk2 coil-overs.

If you want something cheap nd effective I'd try KYB AGX adj. struts with the Skunk2 coil-overs.

If you have a bit more of a budget you can look into Koni Yellows and Ground Controls with custom rates.

Tein makes awesome stuff, but the basics are just that - a basic kit that is pretty soft and has a very limited range of adjustability.

so would it be worth the money tho to get the tein SS damper kit??? i found them online but i cant really findinto on how much adjustability they have and if they are worth it. otherwise imma go to a skunk2 with adj shocks because they seem to be a cheaper setup but work fine from my freinds using them in their cars.
