You could custom order stiffer springs with the JIC kit. A guy on the forum already did it with 12K springs. I might go that route. As for amuse and feels, there's little or no info on their coilover kits.

CyberNation is shit, everything I've heard about them is BAD. Anyone in Miami could have aligned your car with the RGR's on.

There's a review on the Moton's in the Racing Forum, plus a long discussion on coilovers. I'm too lazy to link them, but you can get there from here with two clicks...

If I had to do it all over again I would go with Feels all the way and Tein RS is a close second.

I can get a pretty good deal on H&R coilovers. This summer is when I'll do this mod.

I don't track my car, and their are other makes that might be better, but for looks and price I'll go with the H&Rs

My brother's company has a resale account with TireRack and the discount is typically 15-20% off what they list. I don't remember the exact price but I think they list at $1000-$1200 for the set.

H&Rs arent that great. They provide decent dampering. I have them on my GTi. I wish i would have spent less $$$ and got a set of KW Varient 2s. Without adjustable dampering on the H&Rs, my wheels keep on bottoming out in the rear. And NO my shocks arent blown. H&R doesnt have adjustable dampering, so im pretty much SOL . Not until early this year, H&R started making their kits with adjustable dampering, but they are way over priced compared to similar products on the market. For the GTi at least.
If your intentions are to track your car, or get a confortable setup, i would suggest getting coilovers with damper control, be it buddy club/JIC/Moton it will be money well spent.

Have you seen them? I have heard that the ride quality is one of the best out on the market right now.
The price is kinda high though. $4000 for the set.
