Which coilovers for you?

Which coilovers for you?
Just a quick inquiry: I've done a bit of searching, and it seems that BC Racing coilovers are very popular within our group of sedans. I've never dealt with BC products, and so I'm naturally somewhat skeptical of their products. They have decent reviews, but I'm still concerned on the longevity of their product. I'm not exactly nice to my car; even though it handles like a boat! I'd love some input from the group! I'm considering BC Racing Coilovers, Megans (contacted Megan to see how their 370Z set would work out on the sedans as it's the only set available - quite a few sedan owners seem to be using them, and Megan has a great reputation in my book), and KW's (would prefer not to buy used <- expensive despite).
Thoughts? Much, much appreciated!
Thanks guys,
Eric

Anyways OP i'm on BC Racing and it feels great. An amazing amount of adjustments, priced well, and they're are just an overall good product for the price. KW V3 are the best, but is very pricey and directed to a different crowd.
Oh yea for the record V36 AND Z34 coilovers fit onto each other.

Hipermax III is the direct competitor to KW V3.
They are made in the same plant, but aren't the same quality. I wouldn't reccomend Ksport....a lot of bad stories from them.
IMO I think TEIN is a rip off for the price. Entry level coilovers don't even have dampening adjustment if i recall correctly. Then they get decent once you get the expensive ones.

The KW V3 is a premium brand entry level off-the-shelf coilover.
BC/KSport/Megan/etc. are not entry level coilovers. Rather, they are strictly for lower and stiffening up the ride, nothing more. They DO NOT have any true performance gain.
True coilovers are pieced together based on the buyer's desires. Imagine a G that corners like a Carrera, but rides like a Lexus. That's what is available if you're willing to venture into $5k+ setups.
@ the OP: You bought a nice car. Why would you ruin it with cheap coilovers?
