whats wrong with stock? =)

*sigh* damn, i was suppose to sac up and be the sacrificial lamb on the buddy club thing, sorry guys. if you're adventerous and want to be different, i'd try the RS, its a pretty reputable company and the honda boys love theirs. I'm not sure about support but buddy club just came to the US, saw them at D1. 15 way adjustment, inverted front shocks...

from my experience:
shock/springs that are too soft or incorrectly dampened offers a bouncy, less stable ride on the freeway. my current coilovers give me more confidence than my old shock/spring combo. Although, truthfully, stock definately felt the smoothest/best at high speeds, going straight that is.
i haven't tried HE, but i heard they're pretty rough. But it doesn't mean all coilovers are rough on the streets (keep that in mind). The only real downside with stiff springs is big bumps/dips that you don't see, beware bumpsteer.

kouki s14 is a nice car, get coilovers that won't give it a crap ride. get rides from coilover owners and decide for yourself.
