going ebay is the stupidest thing you can do. When stuff fails (and it will) your not only putting your life at risk but others on the road.
Do some research on diff. set ups. It's gonna cost you 600+ to do it the RIGHT way and have no issues with things breaking. Suspension isn’t the type of mod to cheap out on. Spend the money and do it the right way and have a real set up

It's more of a preference then "what’s better"
I prefer coilovers as some may prefer lowering springs. Tein and Function & Form make really good FULL coilover set ups. You can get koni shocks and Ground Control coilover sleeves.
Eibach springs and Koni shocks are good combo. There are sooo many diff set ups out there. Some searching is needed.
No matter how you look at it your gonna spend around 600bucks maybe even more by doing it right. Search ebay you can find fucntion & form type 1's coilovers for like $600-somethin shipped to you.
