Ride Height Adjustabiltiy/Damping adjustablity as (Koni Yellow) and a Specfically matched H&R Spring for awesome drivablilty and great value!!

its gonna be tough to find a "good" setup for $600. sounds like you're gonna be doing mostly street driving. Look into the Tokico lineup ($400?), they wont rape your wallet too bad. then if you want height adjustability, go with some Ground Control coilovers ($300?)

honestly, I would spend an extra $100 or so and get the Tein basic damper. Its right around $700 and its an awesome setup. It will allow you to lower your car about 2.5 inches. check it out http://www.tein.com
