I hope your know that getting the tanabe setup serviced if it ever blows will not only take months, but is a pain in the *** when dealing with them. People should really try to stay with companies that offer real local support, and servicing.

Our Rally car uses AMR coilovers and they have performed brilliantly. Should be near your price range too and the rebuild is inexpensive when (I say when not if because real coilovers will need a rebuild if they are used in competition) you need to do that. Like them better than the far more expensive KWs that we had on the car and broke after only 3 stages on tarmac.

Now you consider them...I listed them early in my post. Do the research and you will come to your own conclusions. Read reviews of coilovers of other car makes just to see their feedback. AMR seem to be good for the price...find out how long it takes to get them just to make sure though. Ask about valving, springrates, and other parts ect. If it doesn't matter and you are another person just wanting coilovers to have the look buy what looks best I guess. Your gonna get 100 different opinions from 100 different people imo. Honestly you are buying coilovers for completely the wrong reason if you just want the "look" It's your money though.

Here's the deal....since you're not buying them for the track....it doesn't matter what coilover you pick. I mean it.

Just get something that you can rebuild stateside and has good stateside support. This means BC, Stance, AMR, whatever. They're all gonna be pretty close to the same in terms of ride quality and since you're just doing it for looks, who cares about performance.

There. You don't need anymore input.
