Another one of my Suspension Dilemmas, which COILOVERS for me?

thanks to the help of many people, ex. g35sedan. i've desided on coilovers. Right now i'm looking at the main ones, HSK RS, HSK LS+, Tein CS, and the less popular Buddy Club. These i believe all have a comfort side to them and i think they all drop enough to my likings (maybe not the CS, not sure). i have sometime for saving up, so i wanted to see what people can compare and contract between these. thanks for putting up with my thread that all seem to repeat themselves.

I'll be getting a custom coilover setup from AMR Engineering and test it out. You're more than welcome to wait for my review and feedback at G35Frenzy.com

It'll take couple weeks though.

you could also get a set of zeal coilovers.
or
what is new w/ the my350z community is stance.
they ride good and are decent for track at an affordable price.

i would tend to stay away from tein... their springs are amazing but their coils leave something to be desired

Honestly, Teins to Japanese folks are like APC stuffs here for us. Well, at least that's what my friends in Japan are telling me.

Get HKS RS's. On the softest setting they feel very close to stock. Twist them 30 clicks, hit the back roads and you'll feel like your driving a whole differnt car. Dont worry about them not being a full threaded shock body, they will drop you car low enough to bottom out all over town, trust me. I wouldnt buy another coilover. good luck bro.
