In the market for new coilovers...
My Zeal function b6 are getting to the point where they will need to be rebuilt. I much rather just get a new setup because I want something stiffer than the 8kg zeals.
Currently im looking into the Tein src because its in my price range. 16kg may seem a little stiff for the street, but they seem to be well built and I havnt heard negative comments about that setup yet.
I would love to go into the Aragosta setup, but I seem to have trouble finding information about what variations they offer. If someone can guide me into the right direction for getting information about Aragosta and possibly swift springs that would be great.
Another option has been the Amuse coilovers, zeal super functions, and also Moton (pending I win some money).
Anyway, im mainly drive my car on the street and no do local runs. I plan to track my car, but this is down the road. Mainly I need a good quality setup, with stiff spring rates that can hold up my agressive driving style. I dont need a complex adjusting system like the tein though, I much rather have a 6 way adjustable like my zeals are.
Any opinions are appreciated

What kind of spring rates do you want? Have you checked with Endless USA? they might be able to get you stiffer springs and revalve your current setup for the stiffer springs.

since you are on a hunt for some very high end coilovers, and I think you are making a good decision by doing this, going the cheap route is usually a waste of time.
i would say go for something from ASM, as they offer many different setups. Aragosta, SACHS.
ASM Arogosta

also, not trying to be a total d-bag, but make sure you can actually take the car to its limits on the stock suspension before you even think about upgrading it to a high end setup. you would be doing yourself a great favor when you first go to the track to take the car in stock mechanical form and see what you can do, do that for awhile, make mistakes, spin, figure out what the car does in many situations, and then when you can honestly say to yourself I thoroughly understand how this car works, start putting the parts on.
I guarantee you that no reputable tuner would disagree with the above advice.
good luck.
look at the Top Secret above this! great deal for basically exactly what you wanted.

my top secret coilovers is exactly what your looking for at a great deal
o yea, i also agree with the other part, but for you to have almost gone through your zeals, must be plenty of miles on those and i would probably guess you had your fair share of driving. but i totally agree with the advise if you haven't already done so. of course i would never been seen on the road with stock suspension either, so thats a tuff one
