Slip over coilovers or full struts or what?

[vanilla gorilla]

The next thing that I want to do to my car after I complete the current stuff I'm working on, is to lower it. I want to have adjustable ride height. And I was thinking about adjustable damping shocks. I once drove my friend's Accord that was equiped with coilovers, but the car seemed to be really bouncy. I was wondering will adjustable damping shocks cure this problem? I have been looking at these skunk2 coilovers (I know...they're oldschool) and I was wondering if these are any good.

If I got these I would pair them with some adjustable shocks such as some Illumina's. But after looking at the price of all this combined. I could buy some full coilovers with built in shocks. The full coilovers that I have been looking at are TEIN, specifically the basic and super street units. Which ones would be best for my application? My car is a daily driver but I want it to handle (I live in the country with plenty of twisty back roads ) good and have a nice drop. Should I go with the full coilovers or slip overs? I know these are alot of questions, but I have been researching the subject and I just don't know what to do (I have never done any suspension work, except for installing clamps on the stock springs on my brother's grand am ). Also what camber correction kit should I go with?

Thanks for any help in advance

If you have enough money def. get coil overs. Or at least some nice shocks and springs. Those coil sleeve things are cheap and might break.

cheap coil overs are junk. ive installed many of them and about 3/4 of customers come back because they want to have the noise fixed or have them taken out and replaced with stock or just lowering springs. if i were you i would get the teins definately. even just a lowering spring would be good but dont get cheap coilovers. adjustable shocks will help the bouncing with coilovers but the ride would be pretty harsh.

Thanks for the info. I think I will save my money and get the Teins.
