Hey, my shocks have been bad for quite sometime so in the next few months I'm definitely gonna get some new shocks and springs, as the Exchange rate is terrible right now I'm better off buying stuff in Australia and its cheaper than importing and I will have warranty etc, Konis are a little bit more than KYB so I think Might as well get them and I don't really want coil-overs as we have terrible roads over here, would Koni + eibach be better than a cheap coilover setup? and do you really think its worth spending all this money, will it be that much of an improvement?

thanks.

He means an adjustable suspension. Of course a fully adjustable race suspension cost in the thousands, but a nice set of adjustable suspension are about $1000-1500 USD. Konis and Eibach springs will be a nice street set-up, but will lack the adjustable height, which it seems that you might need down there. With a full suspension set-up, you can tune your suspension to the road and your driving. You can adjust shock dampining firmess, travel, ride height, coil rate, etc. In the long run, you can always adjust it to your needs. A shock coil pair limits you to its less advantage. Take into consideration what you are really going to use your suspension for and your answer will come easily.
