Most reputable coilovers will have front adjustment. No such thing as camber adjustment via the coilover for the rear. It's done with the lower rear control arm, or with camber dog bone arms.

And to give you some actual content to work with, a lot of us are running BC coilovers. Varying versions. They're about the $1200-$1300 mark new.
Over the years we've tried just about all of them. From Teins, to Cusco, to D2 etc. Everyone makes them for FTO.

There's another I think mostly Aus brand, ISC that makes them now as well. Not sure if anyone has used them yet. One of the drift guys who does quite well here in SA is using them and winning comps, but I was like, eh, drift, but then he also did well in grip hillclimb too. Might be tempted to give them a go when my BC BR have done their time.

Are BC coilovers comparable to the higher end coilovers?
Eg, Tein, Cusco etc
Or are they just good for the $1k they cost?
