Best coilovers in the > $1500 range
I unfortunately do not have close to $3k to drop on Zeals. I work full time, go to school full time, and save the spare money I do have for my car. So please keep the "don't cheap out on your car" comments to yourself. I would greatly appreciate it.
However, I was looking at coilover options and was wondering if a few people could pop in with some opinions and suggestions?
The car is my daily driver, however, I don't mind a bumpy ride (I think my 375 Front/325 Rear Ground Controls are plenty soft). My daily driving generally takes me the 3 mile round trip to and from work every day and the weekend drives down to Melbourne.
I do drive the car on road courses and autocross, so that is something I'm keeping in mind.
A few options I were looking at were:
1. Megan Racing coilovers (track valved)
2. GP Sports GR-6 coilovers
3. Buddy Club Racing Spec coilovers
4. Tein RA coilovers
5. KW Variant 3 (thanks cthree!)
So, does anyone have experience with these that could point me in the right direction?

I can't believe I completely forgot about KW Variant 3's. They are a touch more than I want to spend, but then again, I've heard so much good about them. Thanks for the input!

Thanks guys, I realize the price difference, I guess I want to know what the extra grand gets you. Cthree, you've been around here as long as I and I've always apreciated your input. Would you elaborate more on your dealings with the Ohlins? Thanks!
