Default HKS Hipermax RS vs. Tein CS v.2 coilovers

Does anyone have any information about the differences between the HKS Hipermax RS and the Tein CS v.2 coilover systems? They both appear to be geared for a more compliant ride.

I have spoke to a couple of folks on the board who have run the HKS RS system and both have been very happy with it. But, they couldn't comment on how it compares to the Tein CS system.

After searching the board there seems to be some who feel HKS produces a product that is of higher quality than Tein. Anyone have any comments about the quality of either product? Your thoughts are appreciated as I am considering both of these coilover systems. Thanks!

From what I have read the main difference is that with the HKS you can slam your car, with the CS your looking at about 1.5 inch drop. Have you seen NEO300's car? He has the HKS and set to as low as possible, completly tucks rear wheel. His car feels like stock ride quality too at that height. Hopes this helps.
