Default Rear suspension

I currently have 4.5 lead rear mid eye springs. They are bent right at the rear eyes and are starting to sag. So I was going to order new springs. However, would it be beneficial to just do a 3 or 4 link with coils? I know little about it.
any kitsch worth a dam?
is the price worth it? I don't race it. Bit love the hobby. I don't think I will ever get rid of the car.

I was looking at those as well. I have been searching around, and it seems I'm looking at about 2100.00 no matter which way I go.doesnt seem too spendy. But I want to make sure. I also wonder if I will end up needing to move exhaust too

I've thought about this as well. My struggle is buying the kit vs doing it myself. I race, so I have all the equipment to make it from scratch. Cost of materials would be about $500 plus shocks. But obviously way more work. I know noreins lover her rear coilover setup. don't recall if she used customworks,ot TCP maybe? You'd have to scroll back through her build thread.
