megan racing coilovers are the same ones as the lower end apexi. they come from the same factory and are just stamped differently. however having said that, i have installed them on both of my friends car, granted an Sti and a RSX, but the ride is rough. if thats the price range and you want the adjustability you could get the buddy clubs.

my friend has the espelirs in his car, and it rides good, better then the skunk2 springs i had in before my coils.

the oem side strakes dont lower your car more then the actual part you would be scraping, and its abs plastic so its durable.

good luck!

They are probably tein s-techs, the h-techs are higher. Espilers are a great choice, look around the forums and CL you might be able to pick a set up for a great deal. I got mine from an older guy on s2ki for $80 because they were to low for him.

i got skunk2 springs on newer 03 struts. Im really happy with the ride, not bad at all, smoother than stock. If your around the vancouver area, ill give you a ride, and the drop is perfect. the install was easy. hour and a half to take off my complete old suspension, and put on my new setup.

I have swifts on mine and they're pretty good springs. they're pretty easy to install yourself.

I live in vancouver, hazeldell area. I'd be down to go for a ride, still need to hear some aftermarket exhausts in person.
I might be picking up djmikes volks this weekend.
