Need some feedback on coilovers

I am planning on getting a set of coilovers for my 03 G35. I have my eyes on the ksport 36 ways adjustable. Does anyone have this coilover on his or her car? Also, what else brand would be pretty good as options? My budget is somewhere around 1k~2k max. Thanks in advance for all opinions!

With your budget covering name brands that will deliver a superior product, cross K-sport off your list and don't look back. More importantly, you need to work with a reseller that won't just toss you the most popular kit, but ask's you question's to find out what your wants and needs are. He will also be honest with you and tell you what you need to hear and not just what you want to here. From my experience on these boards one person does come to mind to do just that for you.

In the here and now of this thread, since we don't know what your after in a suspenision, no one can really recommend anything. I just know I would not touch K-sport and couple other now popular choices.

Cheaply made and cheaply performing.

I used to have K-sports on my previous Maxima. THEY SUCKED BIG TIME!!!
the ride was extremely harsh & two of the coilovers started leaking oil after only after 5 months of ownership. (no tracking, just daily driving)

It all depends on your specific needs. What do you want them to be designed for? Do you want to drag? track days? every day daily driver? What will you be using the car for?
