Thinking of getting a set for my EG as a daily driver? A bit of an overkill?

Is anyone actually runnin a set in their car? The adjustable shocks appeal to me over the Pro S.

Any idea how low it goes? i've heard 4.5 inches but not sure if that's true? Im looking for maybe 2.5-3 inches.

In terms of cars in general, will coils fk my ride? Haven't had a problem with my car whatsoever and we all know once mods go on, something bounds to go wrong haha.

While on the topic of coils, my budget is around 1500...

BC Adjustables? Are they a D2 equivalent?
Buddyclub N+ - Bit out of price range but how low do they go?
Skunk 2 Pro s - How low? better off payin extra couple hundred for pro c?

What am i looking for in terms of a 'good' coilover?

your budget wont get pro c unless its very cheap and from us with cheap shipping

if your going to track your car then pro C

if you just want to go low pro S

ive heard good stuff about BC and the new batch of D2 isnt that bad

what i recommend to you

is koni shocks with ground control sleeves.. that would go very low have a look on us ebay and ht about them.. nearly most of the hardparkers use GC = Ground Control

i got pro c's in my em1, very good coilovers but you will pay for them. Depends what you want to do with your car in the future mate, if you dont intend to go track prob dont bother going for the pro c's. You will need a bit more than 1500 for pro c's though unless (as mentioned above) you can get them from the US.

milkman mikey g - how low do the koni + ground sleeves go? i looked on ebay and it said the springs are made by Eibach and heigh is .5 to 2.5 inches? My definition of very low is 4 inches plus.

I want to go low, but I want quality as well. D2's go low, but shit quaility. I don't want my car to fall apart.

If possible Mikey G, can you post some pics of GS/Koni EG combos.

Cheers
