Hey guys, so for a while now i have been tossing up between kitting out my gen 3 with coil overs or a combination of springs and struts. Basically i can get a set of bc coil overs for sub $900 and was wanting to get some opinions on whether i should just buy them for this price or do a combination for cheaper ?? Ultimately i want the car to handle really well and also loook a bit more sleek and mean

Don't you want the car dumped? Struts and springs can't do that.
Like in your other thread - get coilovers.

Best to start another thread about suspension, just to be sure.
