HKS has been around for ages and is known for its quality parts and racing performance. RSR is also a good brand but it is cheaper for a reason. Either way, you will not be disappointed either route, but might be happier with the performance of HKS.

Just letting you know now. If you plan to go "low" hks hyper max spring rates are very soft.

My vote goes to HKS SP. It was what I was going to get before deciding to just get springs and other bits for suspension for now.

It's a quality dampener with good even spring rates for a balanced handling setup. Just play with alignment and sways to your liking.
