Default Suspension question

Hey guys I am thinking about changing my suspension! I just recently moved to louisville kentucky, for dental school,where the roads are terrible in the city, and much more curvier outside of the city! I currently have Koni yellows with espelir springs. I am on a budget for sure but I dont want to have to think about upgrading the suspension again anytime soon. I was thinking since I already have the konis I could get the ground control kit for them and that would at least give me some height adjustability. Those are around $380, But I could justify spending more, under $1000, for a set of coilovers. So my question is what is the main diferences between the two setups, konis with ground controls or a full set of coilovers? I have been looking at the megan coilovers and honestly any others in my budget so any feedback on those would be a great help!

thanks

Alex

Look at K-sports and BC Suspension (not part of Brian Crower). Both seem pretty good for the cost.

for under a grand go with koni and gc, no name coilover is a hit or miss

you can always revalve/shorten the koni, you can rebuilt them if anything happen, if you found yourself tracking the car more later down the road, you can get it custom valved for whatever springrate you like.

you'll be lucky to get a dyno plot from some of the no name fly by night company out there
