EC they're called Tokico Blews for a reason (they are notorious for blowing) the Illuminas are rock solid but they cost twice as much for a reason

Wouldn't know where to motor work done in Tampa as I live in Richmond VA. I do visit often, my best friend in teh world lives there and I may consider the move down when the kid is off to college.

I've heard ups and downs about the stance coils... how is the ride like? from a daily driven stand point....
I've got the RB suspension package on my 90 and I have to set the Illumminas to the softest setting to drive around town but on autoX day the shiite is awesomesauce.
I've got the AGX's w/Teins on the 91 and really is the perfect street performance set up.
I have good friend with the stance set and he liked 'em but you will feel every bump, it's really more for full on raceday fun or drifting stiffness.
If you have a little extra money checkout the stuff from JIC.

For tires I'd imagine you guys could get away Falken Azenis most of the year.

yeah, down here you either get decent dry and wet tires, or you get really good dry tires and just watch yourself in the rain...
unless you're like us, and you just roll around on junkyard tires until the steel starts to show through... lol...
