What are some good coilovers for an frs under 1000?

Good for what?


A) Just being lower


B) Comfort DD


C) Track Use


D) All-Around










Hint: Option D - Doesn't really exist.

Ive enjoyed the ISC coilovers I have on my BRZ

I'll check them out thanks!

Being lower and everyday use

I assume that you don't want springs and shocks; because you want 9.5" wide wheels.


I have 65,000 miles on prokit springs (same as TRD) and stock shocks. Cost me $235.


Something most guys do not talk about: Coilovers have a life of 50K or less. And then will need rebuilt. So, buying an inexpensive set is not always the best idea. Additionally, many of the less expensive coils are not rebuildable, have poor customer service, or if they are rebuildable you may have to pay to ship them out of the country.


I have read many reviews of coils under 1000. Most guys will give a glowing review of what ever they decide. And, since they are buying in the 1000 and under range, probably have not tested other coils. Making a side by side unbiased opinion hard to find.


Keep reading suspension threads in the tech section. Ask some specific questions. Then, make a decision.



Good Luck!

Hmm didn't know that so you just lowered ur car with lowering springs and what wheel size do u have on it?

18x8 +35 225/40 & 18x9 +37 245/35


Konig oversteer wheels. MPSS tires. W/ 10mm front and 5mm rear spacers. ( wheels are +45 and +42 before spacers )


I have camber bolts in the front.

Good coilovers under $1k do not exist, unless you just want to slam your car.

Lowering springs and upgraded dampeners are:
1. Cheaper
2. Handle better (than stock or crappy coiliovers)
3. More comfortable for a DD (e.g. when Koni's are set to full soft, they have arguably a better ride than the stock dampeners)

I ran TRD springs and Koni's and I was still able to fit (with ease) 17x9 +35 wheels. Looked pretty decent in my opinion as well.

On an related note (sorry for the shameless plug), I will be selling these TRD springs (and front/rear sway bars) and Koni's (koni's will be on the car until Spring though). Price? Less than 1k lol. Hit me up if you're interested.

Those look great on the car I might look into getting some black version for my firestorm frs! And they a cheaper

If you are willing to buy a used set that opens other possibilities also. You get better quality and spend less.
I just happen to have a set of RSR sports-i that I could sell. Less than 5k miles on them. Would be a good choice for what you describe.

Tein Flex z

To answer the question, I would check out the ST coilover (they're like a kw v1), and some of Tein's new stuff like the flex z. Bilstein B14 is also in the neighborhood but a little more expensive.
