Rofl. Definitely KWs over BC, the main thing that will upset people is the stock spring rate that comes with the V3 kits. I think from memory they're around 10/9 or 9/8? Where the Clubsports are 1kg more, ie. 11/10 or 10/9.
I track with 12/12 so KW's rates aren't too unfamiliar but at the moment I don't have damper adjustment unfortunately (Amuse Bilstein similar body to the PSS9 but thicker damper piston) so the KWs are looking like a nice upgrade option personally for me given the individual bound and rebound adjustment.
The Ohlins DFV are one way adjustment on a set bound and rebound curve.. while I've heard good things about them, I'd prefer to go with something with individual bound and rebound adjustment.
Beyond that you're looking at Moton and really high end dampers which are at least 1-2k more than the KW Clubsports last I checked... and that's just for the bare minimum without springs and top hats.
Ultimately it depends on what you're going to be using the car for?
If you're going to drive on street mainly but want height adjustment and don't care too much for damper adjustability - go the Bilstein PSS9.
If you're after the same as above but want damper adjustment go for the KW V3s or Ohlins DFV.
If you think you'll be taking up track work more seriously possibly look at KW Clubsports or TEIN SRCs.
All of the above options are serviceable locally. Where BCs I'm not sure which factory in Taiwan/China you would have to harass to get parts or a rebuild... but tbh I haven't looked all that much into them
If you don't care much at all for long term life (possible rebuild options..??), but just want to lower your car and play around with the coils - try the BCs or BuddyClub entry coilovers...
