Coilovers for BA

Hello!

Can anyone point me in the direction of a good set of coilovers?

Best performance vs best price kind of thing?

Also where to get them?!

Cheers!

Looking at JustJap, the spring rates are as follows on the BC coilovers;

Spring Rates:

- F: 8kg
- R: 4kg


Is that alright for some track work? I'm not fussed about comfort during the daily drive.

8/4 will be fine for track. don't be surprized if they come in a 6/4 though. just jap website has massive listing errors.
