You're not going to find anything worth it's weight in dirt with that budget.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but Tein Flexes aren't very good coilovers. Nor are the BC BRs in the above post. They ride poorly, aren't valved properly, have short service life, they rust, and aren't particularly good race coilovers either.

I was just trying to drive the point that if he spends a little more on something better he will be much much happier with the better results. I posted for his benefit.
