Hey guys looking at coilovers as my next mod. Just curious what you guys have or recommend? Will be street predominantly but track days will hopefully become more frequent.

All depends on budget. Your looking at $3500+ for good street/track items, such as Tein,Olhins,Whiteline...etc
You can also pick up some cheapies for around $1200

-The more expensive/known brand name items will perform better, the adjustments will actually provide a noticable change & they tend to have more travel which makes them smoother for street use.
-The cheapies have less travel which makes them a little bumpy for public roads & there has been tests showing that some of the setting increments have no effect (tested on BC- search nasioc). I have also seen pics of complete failures (D1 spec coilover snapped in half on a track skyline)

Either way, both ranges will be plenty for occasional track use, but the quality items will be more comfortable on street & probably last longer.

You can pick up used teins, WL G4, HKS Olhins for around $1500, or if you prefer new, go the BC ER series which are around the same price, but be aware of the less travel with BC & hold on when you get airbourne
