i've been riding on my D2 setup for about 2 months now. No complaints really, I've been enjoying them very much so. I can't really compare between the two since I haven't had Ksports before.

All I know is that I love the purple/black combo on the D2s.

The two are basically the same, just diffrent names and diffrent colors. When you break the two down and open them up and look at the insides the cores are the same. I have had my D2's on my SE-R since February and I havent had any problems at all knock on wood. The ride is diffrent if your used to springs but if you have had coilovers before then you would be used to the ride. My car is pretty slammed but the car handles great. I think either way you go you will be happy, its all personal prefrence really. Good luck man.

basically the same. and no they are not 'high quality/high end' Sets of Coilovers. They both use generic off the shelf dampeners, etc.

those would be one of the 'higher end' COs. compared to k/d they are in another class. also I assumed JICs are made as well for the 6th gen? those would probably be 'the best'

coilovers

I would not recommend D2's or K sports. Not very reliable. Look at Jic and Tein...

My experience with them. My boys owned both and they blew after a year.
