Get the Bisteins or look into the Strange Shocks, the are very good and adjustable, for not that much money.

If I was going that route and had the $ to do it...I'd go with Bilsteins.

www.stangsuspension.com has the cheapest price on them that I'm aware of...

I would look at getting strange engineering struts and shocks. They are good quality adjustables.
