The Gsc S2's seem to make amazing power. The newest grinds are 274/274

S3 and 5R are going to be a little large for what you are after. I would drop those down to S2s and FP4Rs respectively. I have had nothing but awesome results with the S2s in everything we have used them in.

M2s at least in the IX arent too exciting and loose spool in my experience. To me there is really only one street cam choice of all the ones I have tested. To be fair the ones I havent spent much time with are the newer large Tomei and the FP4R and 5R. I havent done any 5R cars and only one VIII and one IX with the 4R.

I too am up in the air between the S2's and the Kelford 272's. 61mm car. I'm sure they'll both be great so it'll come down to which I can get a better deal on I guess.

I run an HKS 280/272 combo, I love it and you can find them cheap. Drive easy and are just awesome. And a little different than more people have also. But really get what you want more than anything else. They will all work and you will be happy.
