Suspension Upgrade

Suspension Upgrade
So I am looking for stiffer rear suspension. I am tired of the car feeling like a Pogo stick in back.
I have about 3k to 4k to drop. Coming off a very stiff kidney busting Motorcycle I don't care how hard the ride is. I am looking for the best handling possible at this point.
What do you recommend?
Thanks
Robert =)

It depends on your expectations. I wanted the best handling possible out of my suspension as well, so I went with KW V3's. But I don't track.. so it was TOO much coilover for me.
So what are your plans for the car? hpde? autox? dd?

I heard the newer ones were good but have yet to ride one. I think I still have an 02 1000 somewhere hopefully it'll make it's way out this summer.

I'm not sure how good you are at setting up a suspension, but in reality, the high end stuff does you no good unless you know how to adjust them properly.
Why buy a $3k suspension when you can't set it up? (not saying you can/can't just the argument I'm proposing).
KW V3's will preform the BEST for double duty track/dd if you can set them up properly for the two. And they're $1800 bnib, or theres a perfect example of a set in the bay area fs section for $1600 WITH solid topmounts!
Then, spend the extra $1-2k you just saved on some track time, and sticky tires.
JRZ's and Motons are among the best, yes. But they're only as good as the tuner. I would make them seem like megan track coils 'casue I'm not good at tuning .
It's ultimately up to you.. but suspension is more about tuning then "i have the best of the best" that's what jdm tite aero is for y0.
