I suggest you save some more money man. The Skunk 2 kit and Ground Control kit will both run over 300. Weapon R coilovers are just plain garbage my brother has them and they run around 290 i think. Make sure you get shocks unless you want a bumpy ride. Best advice save 900-1k get ground controls and konis Thats what i'm getting.

Just by looking at his car you couldn't tell whether they are apc coilovers or Tein's. if your going to post atleast offer some real advice.

Tein Super Street 16-way Fully-adjustable coil-overs...i think they're the best hi-perf coil-overs for the money ($950)

yeah, but your passenger will sure be able to tell the difference... not to mention the mechanic when you go back for a new set of struts.

$100 more and you can get the HA's... more aggressive valving for performance handling, helper springs, rebuildable, and revalveable.

unless you are a regular auto-x'er or hit the tracks up, SS are perfect for the street i think! But yes, the HA's do kick ***

I'm pretty sure any Tein's are rebuildable and revalvable..aren't they???
