Coilovers

I'm finally looking at suspension for the spring. I definatly want adjustable coilovers because I cna't leave my car lowered in the winter. So what's your opinions on decent coilovers? Currently looking at ground control. What exactly do I need to get, ie pillow mounts, camber kits?

I have been running the Ground Control Kit for over 4 years now, and have been very happy with them, and I am sure that the kit has improved a bit since I purchased them.. this is a good kit if you already have aftermarket shocks like Koni, or Tokicos. Although when I got mine the camber plates they sold at the time were not a direct bolt in with the Tokicos I already had. If you do not have shocks yet, then I would look into getting something like Teins, that is what I will be getting next. If you go that route, you get everything, they are very nice from what I have seen, and the ride is outstanding. Although I have only ridden in a 240 that was equiped with Teins, not an RX7.

I can't afford TEIN! They are amazing, but also very pricey

With the kit you get the sleeves and choice of spring ratings for the springs, which are Eibach springs. You choice hidth of spring, and weight rating, it just depends on how you want your car to ride, weight, and a other sus. mods.
