Racing or Original Suspension?

I was wondering which suspension is better to use - the Racing Suspension, or the Original Suspension that's available for certain cars from the Tuner Cars section. The difference in them isn't a whole lot. The price for the Original Suspension is a couple hundred credits lower than the Racing Suspension, and the Original has a wider tuning range for Spring Rate and Ride Height than the Racing Suspension. The biggest difference between the two is two (or, depending on how you look at it, three) tuning options - the Original Suspension doesn't have Bound and Rebound settings like the Racing, but it has Shock Absorber settings instead. I assume that they perform the same function, but I want to make sure with this wonderful GT4 community.

So, which one works better/do you use when you have the option? Racing Suspension, or the Original Suspension?
 
shock absorber tweaks the overall setting on the shock, sort of like a tokico illumina or a kyb agx, so it has a ratio between compression and expansion and you are controlling the overall stiffness.

Damper bound and rebound tweaks them separately, this gives you a greater control on the spring rate and ride height (which impacts the effective spring rate because it dictates the amount of travel the shock piston can manage).

In short it depends on how complicated you want it to be and most importantly, the car you are running.
