Hey all.

I was wondering what you guys have heard about entry level coilovers?

Since I have a GC body, I would especially like to hear your input on the

BC coilovers and Megan coilovers, or any other set ($1200ish or less).

TIA.

Also look into KW Variant 1s. No damping adjustment, but KW makes up for that by spending a lot of time and effort developing them. They are great, and not very expensive given the quality and lifetime warranty.

I am quite happy with the BC coilovers. I need to get them fine tuned which is proving to be a chore since I'm not a suspension guru but they are getting better and better the more I play with them.
