I am still deciding between buying d2 coilovers, or silk road rm/a8's. Are the d2's compariable to the silk roads performance wise? Are the silk roads really worth the extra $600 compaired to the d2's, what would you guys suggest?

bah.. I've read D2s are worth how much you pay for them, but don't expect them to be comparable to those silk roads... but of course if you don't really need the performance the silk roads offer, then no the extra $600 is not worth it.

Silkroads are the best coilover available for the price. No doubt about it!

Its very true.... "...yah get what you pay for..."

How do the Buddy Club's stack up? According to the group buy info on zilvia, they also have an inverted front strut design, front camber adjustment, pillow balls, etc
