As with everything else, the tool (coilover in this case) is only as good as the person using it. On a site note, if you're going to run a marathon LIGHTLY, would you just do training for a few mile runs, or train for long, endurance runs? I always recommend that people prep their cars for the harshest conditions it will be exposed to. |

The low end coilovers you mentioned are great for getting the right look, but I can pretty much guarantee that stock suspension will outperform them on track. Another option would be to swap on stock suspension JUST for track days. |

Imo, get some springs. Save the rest of your money for something else.

I have read what they said and it's just either buy expensive ones (which i dont feel the price will be justified) or keep stock which i wont for reasons stated above. Im 100% going with buddy club since it seems it fits my driving style.

This is getting out of hand.
He asked a simple question, essentially: Which of these coilovers in my price range should i get? - Dont suggest coilovers out of his price range, we all know you get what you pay for. - And dont be an a-hole and try to tell him that he should go with more expensive ones because the quality is "like butter" Back on topic: go with stance |

While virtually unheard of in sub 1500 coilovers, there's a reason we run stiffer springs in the rear of our record holding BRZ. |

Ground Control Street system, Fortune Auto 500, Tien Basics/Flexes are all other options you should consider they are under 1500
