What kind of driving?
In any case, I'd go stance, Local means little downtime if a coil blows

I would probably get the KTS ones and swap out the inserts for KONI 8610's.

superdrift are like re-enforced Flexes. I've seen people run into curves and nothing happened to the coilovers. Just my opinion though.

Tanabe still makes the Fives?
Out of Tanabe's current line up, I only would choose their Sevens.
But out of the list that you put, Tein Super Drifts would be my choice hands down.

You can do that? Will that work on any coilover? I have JIC FLA2s, I am not sure if the strut can be removed from everything or not on them.

super drifts.
my buddys is running them and he likes them alot. i use to run flex's and personaly i didnt think they were all thats cracked up yo be. but if you get flex's you can get the EDFC witch is pretty sweet. o0o and thats a pretty good price for super drifts.

If you are willing to hack up your housings a bit it can work no problem. The problem with my flexes is that they use an 11" strut insert, the shortest 8611 insert is 11.42" long. Other than that they should drop right in, all I have to do is lengthen my housing by about .5". The KTS coils are budget coils, I seriously doubt that they are using anything but a standard insert.

Anyway, if it were my choice i'd go with the Flex.

Definetly the Super Drifts if you can get them for $1100. My friend has them on his s13 and they are rock hard.
My first set of coilovers were FLEX's. They are soft as hell. My eibach/agx felt stiffer than them.

Damn this thread.
Now i'm thinking of Stance GL Pros or Super Drifts. -.-

I've had the coils in question.
It isn't quite how HARD the super drifts get. It's how they dampen and how it is matched decently to the spring rate.
Stance are nice but I wasn't as pleased with them as I were the Super drifts.
And for the price it's pretty much a no brainier to go with the Super Drifts.

out of all these I would pick the Flex because they are all purpose. They are good for daily driving, track, and easily drift with them.
