Springs, what you like, what you dont Options

Since Snap has been picking my brain about suspension; I thought id write up a spring note for everyone.
Keep in mind that having strut bars, upgraded sway bars, and good struts play a role in a good suspension.
Me having a ton of upgraded suspension parts doe not mean it is perfect but i love my setup so far.

Please feel free to add you input whehter positive or negative:

Sprint:
Blue springs, drop of 1.5" front and rear.
Price is around $150 new.
My experience with them is very good.

Tein S Tech:
Green springs, drop of 1.5" front, 1" rear
Price is $120-$150
My experience from Chanh's car was a bit bumpy but could have been due to the tires.

Seems like stock but a tad bumpy

Tanabe:
3 different kind of springs
Price: $180-$220
GF210 drop of 1.25" and 1" 30% increase in Spring Rate
NF210 drop of 1.5" and 1.25" 5% increase in Spring Rate
DF210 drop of 2.5" and 1.75" 15% increase in Spring Rate

my experience was with the DF210 and GF210
i initially purchased the GF210 but was offered a better deal on the DF210's and a refund on the GF210's so an employee could sell them to their friend?? I only had the GF210's for a week so i didn't get to make an actual opinion on them from a performance standpoint however the ride quality was quite stiff.

I purchased the DF210's for $80 and have had them on for over a year. As far as ride quality i most definitely have no complaints i enjoy the ride height they feel plenty strong in cornering esp. w/ my ST swaybars, I'm still on stock shocks/struts and ride quality on bumpy roads was not compromised as bad as i had initially thought it would be... Not too many people on here have Tanabe but from my experience in other celicas i find that they are definitely a good quality spring. I'd recommend them.
