I personally would buy the KSports. They ride great on the street, work awesome on the track and they're priced a lot lower than the PSS9s and most others. Plus KSport is local so if you want to try different spring rates, need an adjuster wrench, have questions etc., everything can be obtained here in town 5 days a week.

I have never driven on the Apexi coilovers, but I've had both the PSS9s and KSports on my car and the price difference (PSS9s being 70% more than the KSports) is not worth it.

i agree with phoenixR34. ksport has been around for about 10 years now and local here in chandler. they had problems before when they first came out with there coilovers but fixed everything and improved a lot on it just like how it is with ap1 and ap2 cars haha jk. i have the ksport kontrol pro damper which i picked up for a steal at 810 brand new. very great product. i have my settings at super soft in the front and super hard on the rear. i love the orange and the ride to me and to be honest is way better than stock. i though would be hella bumpy and rough but not at all. would highly recommend it. again i've only had these for less than a month so i will keep everyone posted for any cons about it. one thing i would say that i didnt like is that the front coilovers didnt have a place for the brake line to be screwed in so i just zip tied it down to the coilover and no problem at all.

Check out the new issue of Sport Compact, they just tested a bunch of coilovers for the S2k. I personally run the Buddy Club Racing Spec and like them.
