best set-up for the money

KYB GR-2
eibach sporlines or tein springs

inspect strut mounts and bushing replace as needed.

all together doing it yourself should be under US$700.00

Ebay coils and Monroe Struts..






























Are NOT the way to go.

GR2/Teins are very popular and easy on the wallet.

GR2 are very good to a certain drop. I believe around 1.3-1.5 is max I would run with them. Try upgrading to either Bilstein or Koni Yellows. They might be a more money [well over 700 for those + spring]

IMO if you're going to spend over US$700.00 it better be on a nice set of coil overs.
