    BAD choice. The ride is going to suck with the weapon-R's. They arent good quality. IF you want coilovers real bad the only good ones short of $1000+ True ones are Ground Controls. stay away from cheap coilovers.

    Also, KYB's are too soft for any coilovers. Quality brand name springs and struts is the way to go. Don't skimp on suspension.

    if you have the KYB's already, then go with any of these springs. I'll personally recommend B&G springs, since I had those with KYB's and LOVED them. Pete (supershyguy) also had them a long time ago.

    other good spring brands include H&R, Tein, Eibach, Intrax.

    check www.shox.com for the B&G's

    mine wasnt bouncy at all. however if you want something a bit more stiff you could go with Tokico struts instead of the KYB's. I only went with the KYB's because they were cheaper. That said, I wasn't unhappy at all with them.

    I have tokicos and tein S springs.. I really love them.. but other ppl on this board hates them..

    B&G with KYB is a really nice set up as well.. although heh I'd go B&G with Tokico personally :)
