Question Looking for suspension upgrades-specific questions

This was posted 1st in one of the vendors threads in classfields but I figured I'll get more opinions here

I'm planning to finish modding my suspension this season. What I have already is eibach pro-kit and spc arms in the back. What I'm considering is Hotchkis sways and most likely Koni Yellow's or Tokico to go with the springs.
However, if some entry level coilovers will give more superb handling then shocks I can ditch the springs (don't want to go any more lower though).
I heard some good opinions about Bilsteins -How do they compare to entry leverl TEIN's? (comfort spec???)

To be specific:
-my Z is a daily driven street car
-no drifting , occasionally track days
-Some ability to adjust would be nice but I'm not planning changing setups every day
-I don't want my car to be super stiff ,neither I miss squeaking and other suspension noises.
-Overall, I want my car to drive faster on twisty, mountain roads where I live. Do I really need coilovers?

Thanks for all the input

I would say with the Hotchkis sways and great shocks, you would be real happy with the feeling they would give. Especially on top of the Eibach kit you already have. Sways really add alot of handling characteristics to the hole setup.
I haven't heard much about the Koni shocks. But of all the guys I've talked to that have the Tokico were more than happy with them.
