Pretty mild setup. If you want the car to have less body roll, you'd probably also have to look into the eibach sway bar kit.

P.S.: nice job stealing S2k slogans.

easy enough... just change your sway bars back (if you get the eibachs) to stock if you get coil overs... the guy at MM told me with a beefed up swaybar, it will lift one tire off hte ground in a hard corner...

id personally suggest MM camber plates... steeda pare pricey as well, but i hate steeda's customer service and avoice them at all costs because i'd hate to have to call them for a question....

I would run the parts you posted there, and not worry about the sway bars. The car will handle pretty good without going too serious with those. instead, put some rear lower control arms in, and definitely do subframe connectors.

Also, if you dont wanna worry about drilling the hole for the 4th bolt in the right place, Griggs has a set of CC plates that use 3 bolts, and are just as strong as every one elses that use 4.

I'm seeing $330 for the Griggs?! Mingya man.

I was going to say look into the MM plates instead of Steeda too, but I'm not even sure it makes a difference. I think it's more get what you like the look of.

Hm, I got mine used, put a rebuild kit in them, and ran em!!! I had no idea they were that much!! No items on Ebay too. I bet the Steeda would work, and the MM would have better strength. Neither are as expensive as my Griggs ones!!! sorry about that!

H&R springs are very high quality, and are better than the Eibach ones in my mind.

i got BBK Gripps for my car...... ... . . they are defianantly going to be temporary... LOL

Yeah, not impressed with anything BBK. I am slowly replacing BBK stuff on my car with Trick Flow or Pypes, depending on what the item is. Accufab may get the nod for the new Throttle body though.
