springs vs. coilovers?
I want to lower my 00 RS but don't know the difference between coilovers and springs. I would also like to know which is better? I see coilovers on ebay and wonder if they are cheap in price or just cheap peices of shiza. If someone who knows could let me know it would be very helpful.

coils are better then springs/shocks
1. adjustibility
2. adjustibility
3. adjustibility
the average spring/shocks are = about 700 bucks
coils can range from 1000-5000 depending on type and brand.
if you are looking for a drop. get springs but if you want something for compitition use and wanna stay above the game. get a nice set of coils read into www.tein.com , www.hksusa.com , www.apexi.com and jic magic (dont know the site)
just to name a few
JUST ABOUT ANY COIL SYSTEM IS BETTER THEN SPRING/SHOCK COMBO

Your first two links don't work because you placed a comma within the .url code. You can edit your original post.
