Koni Yellows vs. Coilovers.

So tax season is coming up and I was thinking about coilover options. So the go to setup is obviously FA 500's with swift springs. But those come in around 1500 bucks. I was wondering how a Koni Yellow strut setup with lowering springs would compare to the FA's. The koni setup would only run about 800 bucks so that would leave me with extra cash for other parts. Is ride height adjustability and camber plates really that important? I know autocross guys swear by Koni yellows as a great budget suspension upgrade.

If I went with the Konis what are the absolute best lowering springs on the market? I was leaning towards either Tein or Eibach.

Koni yellows are a great budget option. They will also allow you to upgrade later to a Ground Control coil over conversion and camber plates as you have the money. And it will still be cheaper than the Fortunes once it's all said and done.
