Default Best coilover out of these 3 choices?

Out of the budget set, is there one coilover that is better then the other when comparing buddyclub, d2, and megan? Buddyclub is slightly more expensive but they are all relatively the same price.

I'm going through this myself. Leaning towards the Buddy Club. Mostlt cause of name and reputation. You're talking about the BC N+ Spec's, right?

There are alot of Buddyclub Racing Specs in the For Sale forums. Those are superior to the N+ and the coilovers you have listed. Also post in the Want to Buy forums and you will gets lots of responses. I was in the same boat about few months ago. I had 3 buddyclub racing spec offers for less than $1k. I'd jump on those if I were you. I got a sweet deal on a set of T1R's and couldn't be more happy. Good Luck!

Don't go for a cheap coilover...save a bit more till you can afford the KW v.3

Because Honda spent many millions on suspension, and anything you buy will be worse, unless the product was actually engineered to work with the car...thus, making it not cheap.

A nice set of PSS9s will sort you out.
