Ha well the GC's I would suggest time and time again but its just that there are no available struts that mate well with the coil sleeves as they are all under dampened.

Most springs are around 200 bucks. You can use monroes yea, I think there have been people using them because of the lifetime warrenty on em, just like the KYB GR-2's

Colin's MX-3 wasn't crazy low. It gives that illusion because he has over-sized tires which minimize fender gap and a full body kit so it looks lower to the ground.
Ya, he had my old B&G's actually. I actually didn't like them because of how low the rear sat and I also wanted the higher rates of the H&R's. Me and Kp2t both got our B&G's around the same time and had the same stance (he used ZX2 struts, I had Koni Reds), but mx3autozam got a set because he liked our stance but his never settled got as low. As far as my guess is that back then they had a set of springs for both the 4cyl and V6 Mx-3, while it seems that now they sell only a single version that are the V6's part number. We may of gotten the 4cyl springs. Mind you, on a 4cyl Mx-3 it doesn't make sence on why the REAR would be lower, but that's the only thing I can come up with. Could also be because of the (lack of) milleage that mx3autozam put on his car, or that it had no motor in it for a while, but it's still odd anyway.
