all 3 are fine. both the koni yellows and tokico dspecs are fully adjustable. if your not familiar with suspensions and you plan on replacing yours yourself you may want to do option 2 (dspecs and s tech springs) for the fact the dspecs are a direct replacement, meaning you pull out your stock struts and simply bolt in the dspecs the same way.

options 1 and 3 are a tad different because they are konis. konis are only inserts in the front meaning you have to cut your stock front strut to insert the koni and typically the rear mount holes where the shaft of the strut runs through has to be enlarged do to the koni shaft being a little to big.

Koni Yellows are WELL worth it....If you can do the work. I however swapped mine out for the Gravana Coilovers....They are so much fun!!! But can be a PITA when the adjsut ment knob breaks

Speaks the truth!!!!!!!!

I personally have d-specs and if you just want to bolt up and go than that is the way too go.

ok and your comparing 2 different systems. thats like saying yea well my coilovers are adjustalbe and your springs arent. i guess when you said konis are well worth it i assumed you were comparing them to the dpsecs since the op didnt even link coilovers and wanted opinions on what he linked.

good call good call...as far as install, Moar is right, dspecs bolt right in. the yellows can be a PITA to do...but i still loved my yellows.

i've driven cars with both yellows and dspecs. IMO, the konis seem to ride a bit firmer (although the cars were running eibach vs. goldline springs...)

personally, i ran yellows and goldlines and absolutely loved the setup.

if you have the mechanical ability, i'd say the yellows are well worth it.
