We're talking price no object? Probably Penske's (done by ti-point) or Ohlins.

Wthin reason? Probably Tien RA's, JIC FLT-A2s, or DMS (M2)s.

Tripoint no longer does Penskes - they're a Koni shop now. The person who used to do the Tripoint Penske is on his own @ www.ankenyracing.com. (Guy Ankeny)

Best coil-over is one that is made perfectly for your requirements. Only a few have custom-valved applications. Most other ones are very good but in either a generic way or based on what their setup may be. But a good set of Penske or JRZ or Ohlins (etc) can be tuned to exactly what ur setup is.

"They are 442.000yen and panspeed sells Ohlins for 332.000 yen"... Are they that much better than a set of Teins or JIC?

you can get a Koni 28xx series damper for your car for about $1000-$1700 each. Pretty sweet full race setup.
