I am not sure, but BC and Megan Racing coil is same..

Tein Basic Damper, very similar to the OEM sport tunred suspension.

You can easily search them..though;;; If u gonna lower ur car, camber kits are suggested. If u gonna do the coils, go with sway bars.

i would recommend none of those.. for the same price of the ones you posted you can get function and forms2 which blow the **** out of all of them on your list

I have the Megan setup and they are more than you should expect for the price.

I've had the basics, and i loved them, if all you're looking for is a drop with a lil better handling but sill pretty smooth for daily driving the basics are really nice!!! You really only need camber kits if you're going lower than 1.5"

I read somewhere that BC is made by the same people the D2 and Ksport and some other brands. I've also read somewhere that the damping rates between each damper are inconsistant.

Of those listed, I'd go with the DSpec dampers with Swift coil springs.

Is BC a Taiwanese brand? I honestly didn't think so. I have heard BC and Megan are similar/same, but not that. I have heard that the D2 and Ksport are not great though and most of the reviews I have seen are pretty poor. You can check em out on my350Z.com.

notice how everyone's review are "positive". Most people can't tell a good suspension system from a bad one. IMO, the best option as far as performance in your list is the d-spec suspension setup. The dampening is good and is also adjustable, but you don't get height adjustability out of them
