I'd go for the Nismo S-tuned coilovers. it's under $700. I heard the downside to those were that their not adjustable. Get some NISMO control arms while ur @ it.

Non-adjustable sucks in my opinion. Whatever floats your boat but whats the point of buying springs if your going to replace them with something later? Do it right the first time so you save money. Besides if you buy springs, you need shocks your stockers will blow. For more money you can buy the real thing. I wanted spings too at one pont then I woke up and decided to get coilovers. Just giving out a helping hand

Edit: Like naptime said look into Megan racing. 850 plus shipping or KTS coilovers which I trust better because they have done dynos on theirs. But they are also 200 more. The search button is your friend.

^^^ still think its a bad decision but I respect you for at least getting a good brand. Buy shocks youll need them. About the Apexi IRB_2000 has 3 inch MR exhaust diff. brand but should be the same. believe the cat is 3 inch diameter.
Edit: If your going turbo later 3 inch is good. However if your not I recomend a 2.25 or 2.5 inch from HKS, Greddy, or custom.

Anything that drops engine degredation loss.......
Headers, cotton gauze filter, flywheel, pulley, high flow cat.
Or to add crank HP get an SAFC, larger injectors, wallbro or 300z fuel pump!!!!!!!!

^^^ Visit my registry in my Sig (look down) Have you seen my body damage on the driver's side fender? Dont you think I would love to see that fixed? But I dont because there are more important things to buy. Coilovers, LSD, Engine rebuild, etc. Whatever, its your money dude we are just giving you helpful advice.

Before we give you any more suggestions can I ask what you are going to DO with your car? Drift, Drag, street car? We need a theme so we could give you better advice.
