I would recommend against coilovers unless you have a race car that will be corner-weighted. Street cars are usually better off with a good set of replacement shocks and springs, and new suspension mounts and bushings are also a good idea. You can find common FC suspension upgrade parts at Racing Beat and Mazdatrix. Also, Tire Rack usually has a good price on KYB AGX shocks.

If you have a race car, then you can get good entry-level coilovers at ISC Racing, Ground Control, and Mazda Motorsports. The ISC Racing setup is for SCCA IT or EP racing, and Ground Control and Mazda Motorsports will help you select shocks and spring rates for your particular application if you give them a call. I would also suggest a full race mount and bushing upgrade, as well as camber/caster plates.
