Default DA in need of new suspension, What are some good setups?

I have a 91' Integra LS that needs new shocks/ springs all the way around. I want something that is good quality. I plan on driving mostly to and from work, but I would like something that is willing to take the abuse when I feel like dishing it out. I am willing to spend up to $750. I've been looking at some full coilovers and new "Performance" Shocks with a sleeve coilover type spring. Has anyone has had any experience with either of theese? I also need a new lower control arm (The guy I bought the car from hit a curb I think) on the passenger side. I am looking for aftermarket ones and I can't find anyone who sells them. Thanks!

coilovers are gonna ride like a lumber wagon. if you want a good setup for just about anything get tokico blues. and if you want it lowered the make a suspension kit with four tokico blues and four tokico springs that will lower the car about an inch front and rear. Good performance and daily driver setup.

I have ksport coilovers on my DA and theyre not too harsh for daily driving for me. IM pretty slammed and at full stiffness at all times.

i have Tein basics (coilover and strut in one), a Neuspeed upper strut brace and SPC camber kits all the way around. in a word: SWEEET!! although the set up will run u about $1100.

I've tried almost every setup, sans Ohlins and Bilsteins, and the KONI-Eibach make the best setup, period.

for $775 you can get Ground Control coilovers with Koni yellows from our very own sponsors here on H-T. from reaserch and people's advice ive found those to be a good set up all around. i got that price for my DA from NOLIMITMOTORSPORTS in the suspension forum! good luck with ur pick
