You won't find anything worthwhile for less than $150.

there are tons, what are you looking to do with the car? road race, auto-x, daily grind only, back road queen, nothin, etc... if you dont want to increase your buget get someone's old used stock suspension.

What is wrong with your existing dampers?

Have you searched through the H-T Marketplace for used items? How about the Sponsor Marketplace for deals on new replacements?
