Default coilovers

hello i am shopping around for coilovers and am having a hard time getting opinions on certain set ups. i have searched but have not got enough info. i am looking for a setup for under 1300 new or used i will be tracking the car and daily driving. i am not really worried on the ride quality is i would like a nice setup that i will have good use of. I have ridden in a s2k with the tein ra's and i like them very much but i would like your opinions on any other set ups thank you!

You can get Teins, Buddy Club's for that price range, used of course. Check the For Sale threads, you may see some there.

Well, for your price range T1R should be your best bet. You should look into it.

Can I use the same coilovers from MY04-MY05 for a MY06? Or are the differences in the suspension where I can't use coilovers from previous year S2000s'?
