If you want pillowball mounts get the GR+ or whatever

Seriously this is like a one time investment for at least 1yr…so spend your money right. Don’t cheap out a few hundred bucks…you’ll regret it later.

Plus suspension is KEY if you want your car to handle like a champ.

No point in having power if you can’t control it…invest the $ into good reviewed coilovers and go from there.

Read on [www.zilvia.net](http://www.zilvia.net) and search the entry level coilovers such as:

Stance, KTS, Silk Road, Powered By Max, Tein, Megan and Ksport.

Those are most of the entry level coils that are in the range of $1000-$1400.

If you’re hardcore try Powered by Max. $1,000 for them and decent reviews.
