Get MeisterR's! They are very nice, high quality, great company, good price. I tried to get Tein CS but they were discontinued. Others run BC's and Megans, but MeisterR's are better for ride quality...
Very high quality
I personally like the red, black and silver theme in my engine bay :-)

Been on BC Racing BR Type coilovers for approximately a month now. I'm satisfied. Those adjustment level help out a lot on the stiffness of the ride. I started in the middle and adjust accordingly. Also on installation, it requires to remove panels in trunk. I found a thread on how to remove/install them in numerical order.

Well so far it looks like the major players right now for coilovers for our SC430 are Megan LP, BC Racing BR, Meister and D2 Racing....

If you are concerned with ride quality, MeisterRs would be optimal. The other coil over brands could make your ride firmer. My mechanic was very surprised that my ride improved upon install. He indicated that coulivers always make ride firmer, but not these!

Hi Gents,
Have a set of Meister r sitting in the spare room for months now and am hoping to get a chance to fit them later this month when wife is away ( I know, sad thats all the mischief I get up to now). I tried several times to get the d.i.y. thread on stripping out the trunk panels but can't seem to find it. If anybody could post a link I would greatly appreciate it.

No, I had a shop do it but I would do it now though, there's a good DIY shown on the forum for the Megan Easy. I think ride comfort is in the feel of the beholder. With the conform settings you can go from hard to soft. The ones with pillows on top are typicaaly more forgiving depending on the settings. Look for some reviews and compare pricing. I think removing the springs need a spring compressor but you can get one on loan from Advanced Autoparts and perhaps also Auto Zone.
If you really want comfort you could do air bags as have done others. Higher price but cheaper in the long run vs doing the upgrade twice. Several member did coilovers first then bags. I did lowering spring first, with time learned the weaknesses and then did coilovers.
Good luck, Greg
