The Tein Flex are a fine "entry-level" adjustable coilover with Hats. They drive pretty nice and will offer significant improvement to your handling over stock. These are not high-end coilovers, but they are a lot better than some of the junk available. Any of the MKIV Supra Coilovers will fit the SC. Do some homework and determine what you want and whether or not you will be taking advantage of what they have to offer.

I agree with that statement
. It's funny, anytime I talked to an experienced suspension guy with racing experience they all same the same thing, ala "[Tein coilovers are crap for the money]." But don't take my word for it...:

I think a really good bang/buck setup that will outperform the Teins is using the supra TT Bilstein shocks with threaded sleeves and some good springs like Hypercoils. just my $0.02
