Tokico and Koni, input some feedback

Ive got the tokico adj. and was wondering what others think about the tokico's and the koni adj. (yellows i think). the tokico is set up with hr oe springs, and i think the ride is about 3 times stiffer than stock on the lowest setting. going stiffer lowers ride quality but not much.
are the konis the same or do they ride close to stock if you put a low setting?
i love the performance, but its annoying how i cant ride like stock or close to stock even if i wanted to.
also, the tokico does not provide adjustable height but the konis do.
for the price i would recommend the tokicos, and the performance should be unbeatable. i just wish the damper could be a little more generous!
any thoughts on either brand?

Have you tried Tokico Blues? They are not adjustable but provide a great ride and are durable. I used them in conjunction with a suspension techniques setup that was stiff as could be on my old Maxima. How do the H&R oe's ride otherwise? Not many people have them but I was considering getting them since they beef up the handling but don't significantly lower the car - at least that's what I've heard.

I don't have either, but I dont think konis have ride hight adjustment unless you have coilovers.
