Default Suspension setups?

What's everyone running for suspension. I.e. the type and make of shocks, springs and the drop

first

5zigen springs / OEM shocks - that at that all i wanted was a lowered car. i didnt care about any other factors.

H&R Sport / OEM shocks - 5zigen was too low i wanted more of a wheel gap. still in the "looks" stage.

GC / KYB AGX - wasnt satisfied with the H&R Sports, so i decided on adjustables. and my shocks were gone by now. At this point i actually do research before buying.

ITR Springs / KYB AGX - the spring rates were too harsh on the GC, so i needed something softer. Perfect combination for me right now. and along with that, i have a neuspeed 4 pt front "strut bar", and an ITR rear sway bar.

H&R Super Sport Springs (1.5" drop)
Tokico Illumina Adjustable Shocks & Struts

Heh that probably doesn't help you much.

92 RS Teg

Nuespeed Sports and KYB GR2's (koni yellows one day)
Ingalls camber kit up front (needed to trim inner fender), washers in rear
15" Rims and 205/50/15 Sumitomos & Kumos

I am very happy with the springs and stance, because I shamefully deliver pizza all day and need some ground clearance (bad roads in FL). When I get the Koni yellows in the distant future , I will put them on the lowest perch and get close to another inch of drop.

The GR2's are alittle better than stock but clearly cant handle the rates of the sport springs, the ride isnt THAT bad but you know when you hit a bump thats for sure. Other than that, they are decent shocks for a 1.8 inch drop.

I've got ground controls and oem shocks, which are now blown out.

I've got a set of Tein Flex's sitting in a box waiting for a sunny day when passing the SMOG test isn't my primary concern, to be installed.
