If it were 2001 everyone would be like "YEAH THEY ARE DOPE"! But in recent years everyone swears by KW, Ohlins, or something either super JDM or EURO.

For the same/close amount of $$$$ you can try a dozen other ones as well. I'm running on Stance GR+.

I have GReddy type-s on my wagon. I don't track or drag but for DD I have no complaints. Smooth ride (I have adjusted for cruising), no noise.

Also, I thought GReddy was a JDM brand?

I have these coilovers and for DD, they're really nice. If you plan to track the car at all, I suggest opting for the upped spring rates that greddy offers. I found this out the hard way as the only way I could remotely control it was to run them full hard.

Good to know, I do hope to track in future.

What camber do you run for track?

I've heard about Fortune Auto being nice and they are well within your budget, even for Swift springs on the 500 models.
