you might want to check out the suspension forum and check out what people have to say about different types of suspension.

IMO, it depends what you want to do with the car. if i had $1200 i would buy me koni/gc combo. and it would probably leave you some money to spend on some rear lca's, asr subframe brace and swaybar, or some other stuff like that.

H&R Ultra Lows for around a grand. Just get something with adjustable dampening
so you can adjust the hardness of the suspension
