Default apexi world sport dampers

Wondering if anyone had any experience with apexi's world sport damper system. Found some for around $850 or so. I'm thinking this is a deal I should jump on for my 93 civic coupe. Or will I be just as happy spending 2-300 bucks less and getting some coilover sleeves and koni reds? I haven't heard anything about this system everyone that uses a full coilover setup seems to get the really expensive tiens or the like which I can't afford.
Thanks

I don't have personal experience with the WS coilovers, but everything I've heard about them is good. Good ride comfort, good handling, an overall very good street coilover. Probably not something you could take to the track and expect to take first, but a good street setup where ride comfort is a big factor. HTH.

Yeah, this civic is not a track car for sure Just looking for a good quality ride that performs well on the street. I could probably spend less and get something that would perfom better at the track or race, but it's not exactly what I'm looking for.
A high quality street coilover setup that won't rock my teeth out or bounce down the road like a pogo stick is basically what I'm looking for.
Thanks for the info

I just ran into some doestch tech coil overs also, a little bit cheaper. Seems like everyone is coming out with a full coilover system now. I'm familiar with DT from using their shocks in offroad applications, really good company but I'm wondering how good their first attempt at the import world (at least the US honda scene) is.
No one has happened to hear anything about these?

I have had the A'pexi WS's for a little over 6 months and they have been great.
I had Skunkworks Coilovers and ST springs prior to that. Both those were on
stock shocks, so a direct comparison is unfair. All I can say is the ride is nice
with these WS's.
