I just contacted modern motorsports about a set (4 corners) for my car. from memory, the fronts were about 250$ without struts and the rears are on their site at 600 and some$s and include struts.

He said they will have a brand new website up with all their toys in a week or two

I've been hearing that from them since I first contacted them over a year ago But maybe he means it this time. I understand they're probably busy so I'm not complaining. It's just funny that he keeps saying that and the site is still the same.

Did that front price include the springs? or is that just a collar/perch setup?

Everything except strut is included with the front. Heres a pricelist from my emails with modern:
"front coilovers $230
front Illumina's $270
Rear setup complete $665"

and you'll want to check out their springs too: http://www.a1racing.com/index.asp?Pa...S&Category=304

If you can't find anybody that makes coilovers for our cars then you can make your own. And they're not very expensive at all.
Anyone know which items would be needed for this? As little as I know about suspension, I'd surely create something that would burst in flames if I tried to pick out the parts from a1racing myself.

It's a matter of getting the correct size "kit" for your strut tubes. The kit comes with the top and bottom perches, the threaded sleeve, and lock nuts. Basically everything but the springs and struts. I'm sure they're kits are weld on, but I didn't think to ask. And you'd need to cut your spring perches off your current strut tubes. Their kits are sold individually per wheel and dont include springs or struts. They do however sell springs seperately and you can get struts anywhere.

And dont forget the tape measure
