I've had Swifts for the past three years and loved them compared to the stock springs. I drove a friend's Z that had BC with Swift upgrades and determined that was the next step. For the money, they made sense. Having ridden on them for a month or so, I can tell the most subtle differences. It's definitely not the same over big/rough bumps, but in the corners, it's a huge difference. As I become more skilled, I'll probably buy a different set of coilovers, but for now, this is great. The progression is the fun part. Honestly, I think if you buy coilovers that exceed your ability, you'll miss a lot of the fun.

My budget is $1,500. I do want the ability upgrade later on, which is why I'm really starting to like the Fortune Auto 500 series with the regular springs and upgrading to the swifts later. I just don't want my car bottoming out though, I don't plan on going any lower that .5 inches lower in the front and the same in the rear. Going low I don't care for, the performance and drivability I do. I know performance and "comfort" can't be in the same sentence but after driving in the V3's I loved them and wanted something somewhere in the ball park but cheaper, so I'm willing to sacrifice a little more comfort for performance. I think the Fortune Auto 500 might be it, there isn't anyone that has tried the Greddy x KWs to tell us what they are like and I don't want to be the guinea pig. I really like how they look too.
