Hey I know there's a million threads on these..
I've read a lot of them, but I still have questions. I'm looking for a basic coilover setup, don't plan on tracking or autoXing, by want to go lower and put more power to the ground (going ko4, currently 2+) looking into full engine/Trans/dogbone BSH mounts.

I've looked at pwehaus coilovers, haven't heard or read about them though

Sounds like you should just get some good springs and call it a day..until you blow your dampers and then get something like Koni sports.

to put more power on the ground, you need LSD, suspension won't really help.

for basic setup, i would get ST instead of Powerhouse.

it'd depend on how they were used, a few thousand miles sounds low but if it was lots of track duty then the damper would have seen a pretty hard life.

to me purchasing aftermarket suspension is always a little bit of a gamble, id save and go for something new within your budget.

Well lol I didn't really have a dead set budget in mind. Just didn't want to spend 2k on suspension when I don't track, just want to go a little lower, and have something nice for the twisties, but will be mellow for daily driving
