That's only a sleeve coilover, if u want a full coilover go with the Tein SS or the JiC's but beware... their prices run well into the $1000-1500 range

Don't forget about the Tein intermediate kit, shocks and springs for $800-900

Skunk 2 only has the spring with adjustable sleeves... Tein has the entire strut assembly (shocks, and springs) both adjustable...

if you just want height adjustability, go with the Skunk2's or even consider the Ground Controls. If you want tuned suspension that'll give you a lot better handling, go with the Tein Basics or Tein coilover kit. The basics comes with harder shocks and adjustable ride height. The full coilover kit comes with adjustable shocks and ride height.

The only problem I have with the Skunk2 or the Ground Control is that there STILL aren't any shocks to accompany them when your stock shocks blow (and they will blow sooner with the lower ride height)
