Default Coilover Comparison - ZEAL SUPER Function / Buddy Club Racing Spec / Zeal Function B6

Based on literature and first hand experience ... can you guys help me answer some question that I have regarding these different COILOVERS ... I currently have the Buddy Club Racing Spec Coilovers on my S2000 ... looking to switch to ZEAL SUPER Function ...

Why/Or do the SUPER FUNCTION's cost more $$ than the FUNCTION B6's??

Would the SUPER FUNCTION's be comparable to the BUDDY CLUB RACING SPEC coilovers or a BETTER application for Street/Track Combination driving than Buddy Club Racing Spec????

What is the street price on the SUPER FUNCTION's?

What is the street price on the FUNCTION B6's?

The Super Functions are very nice track dampers, but they're a little too stiff for street and sqeaks like there's no tomorrow. The reasons why they're expensive are that they're light and the track performance is good. If you run mostly on the street and sometimes at the track, the Buddy Club dampers are more than enough as they are great on the track as well. Of course, there's the bling factor too.

Personally I think the B6 can only be used as street dampers for the S2000.
