I was running some Tanabes. I believe it was the df210 (color is white) with KYB GR2s. It was about 15% stiffer than stock but I could barely tell. The ride was nice and wouldn't have gotten rid of them but I wanted to go lower.

Well very low. I picked up some Ksports coilovers this past summer and still have yet to adjust the ride height. I have a thread that I just posted of my car.

Welcome to CL man. I know that ain't an easy task but I was in your situation when I was in UTI in SoCal back in 2006 thru 2008...the 2nd job was actually some extra work to fix other family and friend's rides. Hang on there man u 'll make it thru all this...it pays off on the long run.
