I’m split between the two, kyb agx shocks? or D2/Megan coilovers? I pretty much wanna drift more than anything else right now but am planning to go to track every once in a while as well, and was wondering what are people’s opinions, as well as some feedback from people who have had one or the other or both.

Hey man, i asked this question about 2 months ago and everyone told me that i would regret not getting coilovers. Well i got some now and there gonna be amazing! Seriously just get adjustable dampening and you will be fine for daily driving. Also the car will handle alot better with coilovers(at least in my opinion) Anyways like many people said to me just get the coilvers first beacause after a few weeks/months the shocks wont be stiff enough and you will just end up spending more money, then you would of in the first place had you gotten the coilvers.  
Good luck  
Sean

only get springs and shocks if you need to save $$$ and cant switch your coilovers out for stock in the winter…
