Correct. They're a much better option then a set of springs, but they're pretty far away from the real racing setups in terms of quality (the adjustability as far as height and camber is pretty sweet though). I'd say relative to the other options out there, they're a good bet for a street car that sees minor track use. Although depending on spring rates and valving they could be a pretty rough ride for the street if you do a lot of driving (road trips or daily driver).
The adjustablility alone is probably worth the price, but a lot of the coilovers like JIC, Tein, etc make me nervous in their ride quality. The Japanese seem to love really high spring rates and a really stiff ride. That doesn't seem to work very well for the roads you see here in the US.
