What should I buy next?

I have been trying to figure out what I should buy next. Should I either buy Tein Basic coilovers for the car, or should I buy the Aspec kit. What do you think?

Really, howcome? Any reasons why you feel SS is better than the basics? Do you prefer them over the basics?

The SS is much more adjustable and th EDFC can be installed later, this adds a really cool factor so you can adjust the springs and ride from the inside in seconds, so if your crusing and want a softer ride, set it to soft, if you want to go a bit sporty, put it on medium settings, and if you want to go all out racer, put it on the firmest settings.

Yeah that would be great and beneficial in many ways. But to be honest I'd hardly ever change it if I had the SS. I would hardly ever change it from hard to soft and vice versa besides leaving it on soft at all times. Just wouldn't have much of a reason to change it besides to adjust it once and leave it on soft for everyday driving.

To be honest as long as the handling isn't worse I'd go with anything, the drop is what I'm really concerned with. Being able to adjust more also means there is more room for error.
