Bilstein B14

Another vote for B8's here, I'm running a set on my S16 with 35mm H&R springs and the handling is outstanding. The ultimate grip isn't as high as you can achieve with a good coilover setup, but the car is hilariously easy to drive hard, even beyond the limit of grip..

Like you say, you could get more grip but stiffer suspension on uk roads would just ruin it imo. If you had nice smooth roads....or a track then yeah fine but not over here!
