They run anywhere from $700-1200 depending on brand. With these you can adjust the ride height to your liking. Tien coilovers would suit your needs _____________________________ 1999 Honda Accord "EX"(SOLD) 1996 Nissan 240sx "SE" (in reply to RuthlezzFL1P) Post #: 2

It's very smooth as well.  As others recommended, a coil over kit is what I would recommend.  I wouldn't recommend doing it yourself unless you really know what you're doing.  It shouldn't cost more than $100 or so for installation.

Plus i only paid 325 shipped on ebay, struts and springs. _____________________________ SOHC VTEC (in reply to donpisto) Post #: 8
