Default Ground Controls VS Ground Control Limited Editions - Differences?

I was just wonderin what the difference was because i was lookin over on modacar.com and they have regular ground controls and also limited editions and they have the same picture and description for both but the limiteds are actually cheaper. If anyone knows what the difference is let me know, also who's got the best deal on them?

I called ground control, and they said the difference was the "special" spring rate. suppose to be a little stiffer? I forget exactly, but the difference was minimal.

some one else told me they have different adjusters or somthin but i guess i'll be gettin the regular ones i dont want the mushy springs. I'm thinkin those with agx's cause the illuminas and koni yellows are a little spendy bein i'm already a little over what i wanted to spend with just the gc's and agx's.
