For the street? I'd stay with stock.

I prefer SPOON N1 damper, Buddy Club P1 Damper and ZEAL Super Function they're some of the great choices available in the market now. Also I think DMS Type50A got application for DC2R also. But they need more rebuild than the other choices up I listed above.

Damn Reid, did he say he was exceeding the limits of his stock suspension? I didn't read that anywhere in his post.

I would recommend the zeal B2 for a nice street set up

Well the reason why most people change items on their car is to attain a higher level of performance. If the stock limits are not being exceeded, there is no need for even higher levels of performance.

True hybrid only the Super Function is good for daily driving here. It's pretty "soft" compare with P1 Damper and SPOON N1. But I am sure with some lighter springs u can obtain great comfy ride too.

Anyway, ZEAL B6 is great enough for street and track day purpose. Affordable setup with height/stroke/stiffness adjustable. Front 12 rear 9k setting. It won't be rough even u set it to the stiffest.

every suspension company has different level (grade) of suspension. u normally get what u paid for. and good companies normally offers different spring rate. u should let them know the use of your car.
