[QUOTE="draxxus131, post: 14061156, member: 153346"] Don't settle for anything less than $1500, or you will be kicking yourself in the rear later. I to am running Tokico D-specs, which are awesome for the price compared to others (Infinite adjustability with Tokico) which are preset or have to click to a specific point to achieve a certain rebound/compression. I would tell you if you could afford it go with CorteX, if you cannot go with KW V3 coilovers. Coming from a guy who used countless sets of coilovers in my tuner/JDM days, when purchasing a set, anything under $1200 was EXACTLY THAT. It was under everything else in the market; sub-par! The welds cracked just from road vibration, they tend to leak due to inferior seals. Also the valves installed within are dreadful, they tend to have a parasitic sap because of no coating or plating done to it. The more "GLASS" the finish of the valve is the better. So you end up having this floppy ride quality, you think it's good but far from it; until ACTUAL QUALITY lands in your lap! Any coilver you see with what they call helper/assist springs BUY THEM IMMEDIATELY, those parts OOZE quality from every section. The alloy tubing will NEVER: rust, scratch easily, discolor. These companies know what people want in a product and they take the time to check for this detail. GRIGGS is awesome, CorteX as well, Ground Control (GC) my sibling has used from time to time (HE STILL CHOOSES TEIN OVER GC). As a side note, Tokico puts a more aggressive valve system into the shock and strut for D-spec's, which translates to that "bone-jarring" and spine curdling ride. Koni on the other hand a slightly more plush valving job, which is smart on their part to help "please" the masses if you get my drift. [/QUOTE]
