Tein SS
HKS HiperMAX
Buddy club N+ or HKS Hiper Max II ( I think these are discountinued though) if you are on a budget.
Tein Monoflex or Racing Spec Damper in the middle rang
Ohlins or Tein RA in the upper range
Mugen N1+Swift Springs if you are baller enough

Less than 2k price range you option would be Tein SS, Buddyclub, HKS Hipermax,etc
More than 2k TODA, Ohlins, Hipermax III, Mugen full adjustable coilover would be your choice.
It really depend on your $$. You may tell us how much you can afford or willing to spend first.. Its much more easier for forum members to give their recommendations.

Probably my budget is under 2000, when i get the coilovers, would i need anything else to lower the car?

the reason i want to get coilovers is mainly to lower my car. Also to add on top of that a comfortable ride will be great on street, as well as good cornering and maybe track in future.

Coilover will be able to lower your car. Make sure the more level adjustment means the more you can get lowered.:thumbsup: Good luck!
You should now lower ur DC5R too much.
Lowering it too much will result in chances of damaging ur steering rack easier.

Boats don't have wheels/tyres... how will you be stealing our tread?
By boat, did you mean you are sitting in a Supra?

Unless the boat has coils, keep it on topic. LOL.

hehehe, sorry man.. just kidding.
TBH I haven't heard many good things about the RSD on DC5's. DC2, is a different story however.
I'd say to go with Tein Flex... my mate had them, they were nice.
