Well my auto to manual plans got shot down by my dad. So looks like im going to do suspension. I have dec ided that coilovers with adjustable dampening is the best choice. If have narrowed down my choices to megan racing street series with spring rates of 10kg/front and 12kg/rear and ksport kontrol pros with a spring rates of 7kg/front 8kg/rear. I can get both for around 850. Of these two what do you reccomend and why. Also if you have anyother choices in this price range of 800-900 i would like that input as well.
Thanks in advance for any help

They make alot of noise and they keep lowering on their own. I've tightened them with a hammer and they keep loosening and lower. I've had shops look at them and tighten them and keeps happening. They are also easy to blow and ksport takes a long time to replace them.

Megan is an ebay knock off brand of Mugen.
KSport is a quality brand even though their products aren't top top notch

woah what? I've never heard that before. I have heard that Megan/buddyclub/ksport/bwr etc are all the same shit branded different for the most part.

Buddycub and ksport aren't knock offs like megan and bwr.
I wouldnt put them in the "knock off" category.
