silkroad is made by section which is pretty popular in japan i believe. section makes coilovers for a lot of different companies. gp sports can be bought at many distributors i can't remember the main one but autornd sells gp stuff.
the main things to look for aside from quality/build/price "feature wise" are dual height adjustable, front camber plates and dampening adjustability. the low end tanabes don't have all the functions like the dd/new seven. low end coilovers doesn't mean it isn't good either. just because it's a lower model doesn't mean it's crap. coilovers are basically meant for people that want to get low. if you're looking into the lower end tanabes then koni yellow shocks would be a good choice over that.
if you have a low dollar budget i'd recommend kts coilovers, tanabe sway bars and like some 50 dollar ebay subframe collars over any choice in it's price range.
