I agree with Vinh...True Coilovers are the best way to go....if you're gonna invest in suspension for your car then save up for True Coilovers...you won't regret it in the end...with Springs and Coilovers you're gonna hafta buy new shocks anyway cuz you're not gonna want to ride on your stock shocks with them cuz your car will be bouncing up and down over every little crack on the road...
