I have the Skunk2's. I like the locking perch design of the Skunk2's as opposed to the single locknut on the GC. You can get different spring rates with both companies...

Re: SKUNK2 or Ground Control (RiCeOnMaiSoK)
I have the Ground Control C/O kit for almost 4 years, almost 90,000 miles.
I paid like $390 or I love them. Never had a problem with them.
However, I would go with a Full-Set up coil/over kit. The kits are now cheap.

Re: SKUNK2 or Ground Control (rolow)
Id save my money and buy a full coilover setup, not some cheap sleeve and coil combo. When you think about it, you are looking at around 400 for a name brand coilover kit and around 400 or more for a good set of shocks. Why not save up a lilbit more money and get a kit like the Apex WS or the JIC SF-1s?

I heard the Apexi WS coilovers are not that stiff and the ride is some what little stiffer than stock. I have not rode in a car with this coilover but its just what I heard.

Re: SKUNK2 or Ground Control (FastxCivic)
Some GC's are the same price as Skunks now. The Limited Edition GC are $280. A lot of places are charging $280 now for Skunks. You could probably find Skunks for $250, but I'd save an extra $30 for GC.
