Need some serious opinions

I got my 01 coupe and I am leasing it, but i am not sure if I aqm going to keep it or return it and get another honda(it is due back next july. I want to fix my suspension, but I dont want to make the wrong decision. Here are my options that I am considering.

-I can take off my shitty coilover sleeves and just put on neuspeed race springs, bu the only problem is I am worried that my stock struts might be too shot to handle the springs, but I am thinking that its only a 2 1\4 drop on the neuspeed race springs which should ride ALOT better than my POS coilover sleves........THen if I keep the car I can just get struts.

-I was thinking of taking my coiover sleeves off and put back the stock springs and going to the dealership and getting new struts under waranty, but I got a question....Will it work, or will they complain and pipck up on what I actually did? And then I would put neuspeed race springs on .


-Or i can just opt for the whole new suspension then if i dont keep the car i can sell it at the end. And if I keep it i will have some sick suspension.





Please send some opinions cause I need to take care of this very soon.

Thanks

get back to me
koni =550
neuspeed =200
installation would cost more than full coilover setup just because koni needs modifications to fit with stock struts. it wont be straight swap.
i had tein ss. installation was easy. cost around 1000
