I have a MY03... changed to thicker MY00-01 fsb and thinner MY+06 rsb to reduce oversteer (byproduct it reduced bump steer too). Stock oem shocks/springs.

This thread seems to say otherwise. Where are you reading that they're discontinued/unavailable?

Coilovers don't affect bump steer.

B14 is the PSS
B16 is PSS9

I would opt for the B16. Don't drop the car more than 1".

From my long expirence with Motorcycle suspension, i would make a advice: Dont be savy, get a suspension with adjustable Damping, the B16 / PSS9.
I am in the progress of installation of the B16 at the moment, together with the 00 front and the 06+ rear swaybar.

Key difference is B14 are fixed and B16 have adjustable dampers
