Default coilovers for eg

i have a EG and all the shocks are blown with cut springs in the front and some knock off brand springs in the back. Problem being i dont really know what kind of coilover set i want to pick up. The car is mainly my daily driver but weekend warrior too. i been checking out skunk 2 pro series-s and function form typeII. tein basics look alright too. im not too interested in struts and sleeves i want the full coilover so any help on what setups work for my situation?

Spend a little bit of money and get something good such as Tein SS's. Both height and dampening adjustability. Iv heard F2's arent bad, but from what i hear Ksport, D2, and F2 are from the same manufacturer. Tein Basics are only height adjustable not dampening so you wont have a wide range of how your car is going to feel on or off the street.

I agree that you should save your money and get something with better quality.
(my motto: buy cheap, buy twice)

three letters for you... PIC
quality and customer service second to none.

For the same price as the Tein SS's you can pick up a set of PIC P1 selects. (8k/6k)
They would be great for a good ride for a daily driver and yet are able to firm up for the track on the weekends.
If you like stiffer setups, go with the P2s. (10k/8k)

(PIC's site link is in my sig)
