Keep the koni's and get some stiffer springs Yes

harder doesent mean more grip or better handling,
you can get a awesome setup without going to coilovers , dennis' old setup is a great example .

if you really do want coilovers then mxcrazy is selling some D2 coilovers with adjustable topmounts as new for like 400 quid,
if Not have a look at AP Sporsfahwerks iirc. not too expensive and a fairly good rep Yes

wouldnt call them "expensive" tbh, its just the price you pay for decent quailty and functions.

any kind of progresive spring,

i.e loose coils then get tighter and more coils at other end

try faulkner.


i would recommend sorting the rear before the front tho
invest in some 21mm tb's or bigger, and a hybrid arb
will make more positive difference than changin front springs.
