I know only one thing about coilovers: You get what you pay for. Cheap coils will be shite.

Get something decent, or don't do it at all.

Save an extra $150 and you have a set of quality ST's.

check the vendor classifieds. ST's are probably the most affordable LEGIT coilovers on the market right now. depending on who you buy from, brand new a set goes anywhere from 750-850. if you can find used, theyll range from 550-650 but these sell quick.
