Default need suggestions

okay so i need a suspension, and idk what to get, i really wana just stay with skunk2 just cause i have heard good about them all around. also i have always dreamed of a full skunk2 suspension, but completely open to something else. basicly i am pretty set on the skunk 2 LCA, front and rear strut bar, and lower arm bar. pretty set on those. but what idk what to do is do i go with the pro s or pro c full coilovers, or something else. not looking to slam the crap out of my car, mainly a nice visual drop. but want/need the handling/peformance aspect, with a nice ride, live in ct so roads can be nice, and they can be ****. and i dont want to be smashing my head against the roof when i go over a bump if you get me. its going on a 95 coupe. im leaning towards the pro s coilovers just cause there about 400 bucks cheaper, but are the pro c's really worth that 400 more. or should i just go with the skunk adjustable coilovers with there sport shocks? or a different shock. looking for input. thanks..

If you want to stay with skunk2 than I would recommend is buy the sleeves pair them with Koni shocks. I have no idea who told you to go with the LCA's(bushings crapping out) and the full coilovers I have read a lot of bad things with those. As for your strut bars no need for the lower rear, pick up the ASR brace it will actually do something besides adding weight and looking pretty.

Skunk2 coilovers, are very stiff, i dont have alot of experience with the pro c but i have heard bad things about them, at the same time theres a lot of people that love them.

The skunk2 lca bushings suck, they just released new ones, but i havent heard or read anything about them yet, but skunk2 saying they take care of the prevous issues.

iv just came across some omni power full coilovers. for a little cheaper then the skunk2 how are the omni power full coilovers.

edit-my boy had them and he loved them on his turbo da, he was able to dial in ZERO body roll. what would be best front and rear strut bar, and then lower arm bar, and LCA's
