Cheap coilover alternatives

Hi
iam looking for cheap coilover alternativs for my nissan maxima QX (a33) 2004.

The only options for me is either k tech or bc coils and both are kinda pricey.

i might get bc someday maybe but i dont think its worth it to put expensive coilovers on a oil burning ****box

is there some coilovers that will fit with minor modifications?

i live in europe

thanks

sorry for england no gud

Don't go cheap on coilovers. Pay once and cry once. If you buy BC's you can always re-sell them and get some $$ back, unlike with the cheap stuff.

If BCs are too expensive for you, then don't get coilovers at all. They may be better quality than the cheaper options, but they are far from high quality in the grand scheme of things. What exactly are you trying to accomplish by getting coilovers?

I’d cut them instead but OP, springs might be a better option for you.
