In that market any coilovers you get will be pish. You would be better fitting decent dampers and decent lowering springs.

I've had bc's in the past and they were pretty decent for the price actually , it's not for track use or any thing to extreme I just want a nicer looking ride height and better handling, I might just go for a good kyb set up could you recomend the best kyb's and lowering spring's for a comfortable but stiffer ride ?

Have you looked at the Pedders kits they are very good. BC's are poor end of story.
In terms of springs Whiteline, Eibach or Prodrive are your best options. Eibach make the prodrive springs so there is probably very little between them.
