For me, I don't see the point in getting coilovers if there is not adjustable damping. That is one of the best features of coils.
True, but if I go that route, once I find the height/stiffness setting that I like, I most likely won't change it. I don't want a jarring ride on my long commute and since I doubt I'll ever track my car, the stiffness setting will probably be near stock ride quality. So for me, the Tanabe's sound like a good choice, but I'll look into the Powertrix also. Any comments on Tein Basics? Thanks.

I don't want springs because of possible premature wear on the stock shocks. From what I've read here, it is better to install coilovers because the springs and shocks are mated and designed to work together.
