Daily driver needs new suspension
I just dropped a JDM B16A in my 99 SI and I found a strut split in half and a spring broke. Not sure how I did this but now I am in need of a new coilover kit and I was wondering what people recommend. This is a used car I bought and I'm not even sure what kit is on it but they seem to be kinda weak, so I'd like something strong. I'm not going to the track or doing any sort of autocross or racing... Well maybe some aggresive driving on the streets late night lol... But nothing too serious. I'm looking at the Skunk 2 Pro S II and the Buddy Club N+'s. They both seem good and are in my price range, but I'm not sure what would be best for my purpose. Also, I seen the N+'s have pillow balled upper mounts, is this something I would need? I'm just looking for a good ride that's fairly adjustable, not slamming the thing because I do like to drive the car from time to time. Any advice helps.

What did you hit?
What is your budget?
I don't know what I hit exactly, maybe a pot hole or a large curb? I have a bit of a drinking problem... lol but seriously, I'm looking at the Skunk 2 Pro S II or the Buddy Club N+'s, my budget is around a grand.

I have a set of Buddy Club N+ on my hatch.
Thinking of taking them off (going to get a custom springrate for track).
In good used shape. Shoot me a message if you want some information, might sell them.
