I second the air suspension suggestion if you're going to be on roads as bad as I imagine you might be. There are a couple guys locally that are running D2 suspension's air kit (bags on adjustable struts) with acculevel management and I've been impressed with their ride quality. They still handle pretty well, can be beaten on more than I would have thought and give you the height adjustability you're looking for. That setup will run close to $2500 depending on options though so it's definitely not in your budget, but it really is a good bit of both worlds.

Now, back to reality and your budget (lol), I would definitely recommend Stance coilovers with a true style rear over the BC Racing BR series coilovers that are quite popular. Ignoring the fact that Stance coils go lower, as that's not pertinent to your situation, they ride so much better than my BCs did that I'm mad at myself for having ever spent the money on the BCs in the first place. I swapped my BCs out last summer for the Stance coilovers and have been extremely happy with the ride quality ever since.

Only caveat to that - I do not know what their max height is. I never tried, I was going to the opposite direction lol. So if you need to stay close to stock height when adjusted up I don't know what coils will work for you.

I live in Texas, but you were probably talking to Ashley (NFSPG35) or Chris(snoop). They are friends of mine that have seen my build over the years on here. Since I won't be that way anytime soon take a peek here for a detailed look at what I've done to my baby. https://g35driver.com/forums/media-s...d-century.html
