Honestly the coilover market is just ridiculous. I thought I'd picked a set (the KW Variant 3), but then I find out that I also need camber plates, and maybe new endlinks? I'm half scared that I'd show up at the lowering day only to not have half the stuff I need.

Any suggestions for someone looking to improve handling at the track, without totally sacrificing DD-ability, and avoid going too much over $2K all inclusive?
I've just put on a set of MCA Reds, haven't tried them on the track yet, but they are designed to be streetable track focused coilover system. MCA has two systems, one falls around 1600 (Blue) and one falls around 2700 (Red). Both come with everything you need.

I did a lot of talking to Josh at MCA when I was deciding on coilovers and found him to be really helpful. Plus it's cool being able to bounce suspension ideas off of the guy who has set up three of the current fastest time attack cars in the world.

Only real downside is that you'll have to import them from Australia.
Also they don't lower the car as much as other systems, if that's something you care about.
