Thumbs up Help me pick out coilovers

I was looking at TEIN flex and RAs and Buddy Club racing specs. Flex seemed to have been ruled out by everyone I spoke too. Buddy Clubs and RAs I've been told are about the same. I am looking for something for my daily driver which I occasionally drive in NYC, and face crappy roads everyday. I don't mind a stiff ride- I just want something that is going to be reliable under these circumstances and not rattle my car to death. I plan on doing autox and I know you guys are going to sh** on me for this, but I like to mess around w/ drifting. Basically I'm looking to spend between $1200- $1600 depending on quality. Thanks

I have a T1r coilovers. They seem like a set of quality coilovers to me.

I think the KW V3 setup would work great for what you need and the fact that these they have External Resevoirs really put them far above any coilover in their price range.
Check out this post if you'd liek to look further into what I'm talking about...

If you by an s2ki membership you get a hell of a discount on them...

The KW V3 seem to be in a higher price range.

I owned the Tein CS coilovers for quite some time and was rather happy with them - recently they started to go bad and i have decided to change coilovers entirely versus having them rebuilt.
After riding in a friends car that has the Buddy Club Race Spec I have decided to go with those!

Check out Group Buy Section. Gary@Importtuninggarage has them posted at $1245 shipped
I'll be picking up a set of those this coming Friday
