If you want coilovers, I would say Fortune Autos. PM me if you want more advice!

I'm in the same exact category as you are and am currently contemplating the Fortune 500's and BC Racing BR Types, both are in the $1,000-$1,100 range.

I've heard great things about BC Racing BR Type and Fortune Auto 500's, I'm currently on the fence with both.

I have the Buddy club N+ and am liking them so far. I just do spirited driving on occasion though. If i were to track my car consistently though id sell them and buy either KW or HKS.

No worries...I hate auto-correct on my phone too! Anyways, for a budget coilover under $1200, I personally recommend Fortune Auto over anything else for the s2000 if you want a more performance oriented ride. The bilstein PSS9 is more money and spring rates are softer than other coilovers, but they are a great coilover!

This is exactly what I am doing. The OEM suspension is great, I want to improve on it, not just lower my car or have it adjustable.

The Bilstein car I did get the lucky chance to drive though, felt very OEM, but just that little bit stiffer to give better performance. Fortune auto I have good things about, the 510's.
