Which coilovers should I get?

What brand is the best and will last the longest?

Also which one is the easiest to adjust?

Neuspeed is having a sale on theirs...$699. Not that I remember what they usually go for anyway!

Maybe 8-9?

Groundcontrol sells for $299 a set. So about $600. I spent $781 and got groundcontrol Coilovers and tokico Illuminas and couldn't be happier(well I could if we hadn't broken a bolt but that's another story).

i like ground controls....

adjusting them is as easy as loosening one bolt, and turning the ring. although they make it seem easier in the ads. i took off jmy wheels when i did mine, took about 7 mins per wheel.

There is a groupbuy going on for H&R's coilover kit... One of the better prices I've seen for "true" coilovers...

yup. I can adjust the fronts w/out taking the wheels off but I gotta take the back wheels off, but it's easy. That reminds me, I gotta lower my car back down.(I raised it because of my parents mountain of a driveway).
