I guess you haven't tried to search yet?
Before you possibly make a mistake and buy something you don't want for your car, let me ask you why do you want coilovers and what do you plan on doing with the car? Drag? Handling? Street car only? Do you care about ride quality?

We have a real nice coil-over conversion setup using either Afco or Strange shocks, that will work well for street and strip. Several different spring rates to choose from and the correct mounting hardware to do it right the first time. Best of all will be the best prices you will find on getting the job done.

The front of these cars is a coil over shock setup, you cant do it any other way. You can either buy the springs and shocks seperately, or get them together-but either way, when installed, it's a coilover.

Hello,

Below is a link to look at adjustable coil over kits to give you an idea of cost and what they are, below is front only. These kits are adjustable in height and shock settings as well as offering different spring rates. Price for the kits includes two shocks and two springs, they are a direct bolt as well.

Front Coil Over kits

The rear is different and not many make a rear kit. If you do find a rear kit available it should be welding, the bolted ones I have seen might not hold with out welding.

We usually run a coil over kit in the front along with a set of factory springs in the rear for a rake look or just rear lowering springs.

I hope this helps!
Ryan
