I have nothing but great things to say about my Bilstein PSS9's. Not sure of your budget, but they run just shy of $1400 PSS9's

They say '00-'03 but I've had them on my '01 and now my '04

better stance than the n+?
you know coilovers are height adjustable right? meaning you can make it any height you want. the n+ will go amazingly low if thats what you want.

i have megan tracks, best bang for your buck. dont let the 14k spring rates be scary, with the dampening down they ride good.

Just in case this can help here.....I found this site with the best price I've seen or heard on PSS9s.

It would help to know what you are looking to accomplish with coilovers. Are you just looking for somethign to lower the car? Do you plan to track the car? Daily Driver? Otherwise you're going to get everyone's opinion and it will be all different.

I'm confused by you saying you want something with a better stance than N+? N+ is one of the few coilovers that are designed to be lowered aggressively and not affect the ride quality.

If you're just daily driving the car either PSS9s or a set of Koni/Ground Controls will be perfect.
