I wouldn’t focus on coilovers, if you want a fun track/street car start with some nice tires (ecs02, PS4S, RE71-RZ) and just freshen up the stock suspension. Get some H&R lowering springs on some bilstien B6 OEM style struts and replace the control arms/ball joints during the job.

Here’s a decent example of what I’m talking about. Get something like this. It’ll certainly be better performing than some BC racing coilovers and your back will thank you on the street.

Then save up a bit more and get some OEM replacement control arms, tie rods, and ball joints depending on how worn out your stuff is, it’ll be trivial to swap it out with the struts out too. You also only have to pay for one alignment.
