First of all, just wondering how much are the TODA(FIGTEX) coilovers set?

Well, first it might help to let us know what you use the car for. Is it a semi-dedicated track car? A lapping day/autox car? pure autox car? pure daily driver? etc and how you want the car to behave after the suspension install, more oversteer, neutral, less oversteer, etc.

Niether are suitable (bearable) for daily driving. You will rattle your fillings loose.

Would that be the white fillings, or the metallic looking ones?

BigPhat,

I think you are mistaken. The Mugen Lowdown (which is SHOWN) is fine for the street.

I use Mugen N1's for the daily commute here in Toronto. It's no big tick. I still have all my fillings. I leave it at the softest setting for both track and street. I don't see any need to crank it any firmer than it already is.

Mugen Lowdown Only because I'm getting them

Actually, just going on looks, it looks like the Mugen is a less complicated system and it will be lighter. I chose the Mugens because of the quality in their products and they are specifically designed for our R's. Plus the people who've put them on gave them good reviews.

I'll soon see for myself (still patiently waiting for them to arrive)
