If you can afford to wait I'd keep an eye on the Tein Flex Z

Release should be ~August this year.

I doubt it will be "way better" by the nature of its twin tube construction. It will likely be a great value for the money, though.

Tein has done a lot of work for this car. I have previously been disappointed with tein dampers, but that was almost 10 years ago. I'm sure they've improved since then and reviews seem to say they have.

The Tien Flex Zs are arriving to US retailers now. About $900ish.
