Yes, all you need a sleeve kit for coil overs. check maximum motorsports. They have some good kits.

I also checked Griggs Racing out and they seem to use Koni inserts in their coilover setup. . . pretty pricey too.

anyone know if the Koni'suse Nitrogen?

Thanks, i was going to go with H&R springs, but if i can use my struts and shock i might as well go to a coilover setup.

Either is good. I would say the double adjustable just so you can have a litte bit more to play with.
