I've got a set of Super Streets on my car and I love them. They cost a few bucks and I really don't use them to their potential though. I still love them.

Of the ones you've listed the Skunk2s are the only ones I'd consider. Koni Yellows and Ground Controls are a better bet than any of those.
Do you recommend Ground Control coilovers over Skunk 2 coilovers?
(I'll be getting Koni Yellows)

Look around, ask around...ground control/koni yellow is the BEST suspension strut/coilover suspension you can put together and I've been saying that for years.. They can be pricey, but the ride quality is second to none. Now if you wanna be a baller, I suggest JIC FLTa2 full coilover suspension, but for 2k plus, well they are over 2k what do you expect?

D2s offer dampening controle and, unless they have changed their coilovers, Omni's don't.

Thanks. I've been considering which one of the 2 I wanna get. I should be getting all my suspension parts by Christmas.

I've heard about the GC/Koni Yellow set up, one of my friends has it on his 91 Si that he autocrosses. I might end up getting the D2's and then getting some Azenis RT615's for a nice street/weekend autocross car.

the new omni's do...

and pleaaaaaaase dont get the D2's... its just a junk clone to go with megan/ksport/etc. do yourself a favor, pay an extra 150-200 bucks to get a set of yellows/ground controls. With that setup, you'll be surpassing almost any mass produced coilover.
