It's funny that you like the brands that most people consider the shitty, JDM-fanboy brands. K-Sport, Tein, F/F. What is it you liked? Did they handle well, where they stiff, what is it about them that you liked? Almost every article I've read by a shop/person that races competively or knows what they're talking about mentions the above brands as just hyped-up products, when there are better products out there...
With that aside, from what I've heard and seen, the Koni/GC combo is great for the price. You're getting high quality stuff for not too high of a price. It's considered on of the best combos for the EF without getting into high price suspensions ($2000+, Motons, etc).
OP, I've heard great reviews of the Progress Coilovers. I don't how much they cost for your platform or if they have them, but when I was looking at them for my CRX they where like $600 shipped. I chose AGX/GC's becuase it's a tested and true combo, and I found a set for $500/shipped.
