I've never heard of this make but what i will say is spend that bit more for a make that is well known.
I currently run HD Systems HSD coilovers, they cost just under £700 i think but i have had no issues with them.
I've heard BC Coilovers knock.
Teins i've not heard ay bad reviews about.
Thanks

I think the rears on the BCs had issues so they went to a rubber top mount but i remember reading incorrect setup can cause knocking aswell. I bought a set of BCs with adjustable rear camber plates but have not fitted them yet so can't comment at the moment.

To answer the op's question.
I had Daiyama coilovers on my previous car, a Mazda MX6 with 4 wheel steering. Theyre the best available for most Mazda's but also do suspension for other cars. The ones I fitted had 24 different shock settings + ride height. I bought them from the editor of Fast Car magazine who had them fitted to one of their project cars. They had done less than 300 miles and I paid £250.
If theyre the same quality as the ones I had on my Mazda then you're onto a winner, and theyre definately not some budget brand crap.

Ive not tryed the daiyama coilovers , seam a good price was just reading about them , like everything you pay for what you get , if you can fit them yourself then thats one other thing less to pay for , The only other thing i can suggest is get them set up and your car tracked up properly (4 wheel set up with camber ) , We have seen no end of impreza's with coilovers from 600-3k fitted but the set up was really poor .. It may cost you 150 quid say but it would be very much worth it ...
I had one in work today , the guy complaining of understeer he had had the bc's fitted a week ago, but it was running positive camber on o/s/f and negative camber on n/s/f , that with a massive toe in .... quite shocking really , but sorted that and it was a very different car ..
