Good value coilovers for FD3s

I currently have Tein super streets on my FD and would say they are a bit hard and crash. And I have a knock from the back which I think is the top mounts . I could maybe replace the top mount bearings but was wondering what good value coilovers there are out there I could replace complete units with? Preferably something I could get in the UK.

Those prices for the Ohlins are in the US, in the UK you can't find them new for that price

Hmmm. I won't be going new anything for those prices! But if I can pick up good used it would be nice to know what to keep my eye out for as a nice streetable setup that last well. Maybe I could just try and change mount bearings and see if it feels any better. I think they will still be a bit harsh for my liking though.
