I'm hoping to do coilovers on my DC4 here pretty quick, but I've got a few questions first;
All within a pretty similar price range are the following coilovers:
Form & Function Type 1

Godspeed Type SS

Skunk2 Pro S

So it's kind of between those 3. Leaning towards either the FFT1's or the Skunks, but I'm not too sure yet. Recommendation based on experience is appretiated. Also, the name isn't even correct in the title for the FF's, is this stuff all legit?
Is a camber kit mandatory?
On a budget, might I just be better off buying some used $100 springs such as Eibach's or H&R's and then throwing them on quality shocks such as Tokiko's? Would the height be fully adjustable? How long would it take to blow out my shocks with just springs?
Should I consider coilovers from any other sources besides the ones above? If anyone can recommend something not too far out of the price range, I'd gladly look at it. How expencive would it be to put Ground Control springs on some appropriate shocks? Keeping a sub $800 budget in mind.
Edit: What would it be like to put some used H&R springs on some shocks like these ? Or even eBay adjustables?

Really affordable, but would it be a waste? Not concerned with ride comfort, just looking for an affordable drop that won't blow in 2 months.
Ooh, and these. Are they total crap?

I've done a lot of reading but still had a few questions. Sorry that there's so many
Thanks in advance.
