My car makes way more power/torque than I can put to the ground and need to do what I should have done first. I'm not familiar with this topic and am not sure where to start or where to buy. My friend helped me come up with some suggestions on what might work well for my setup.

coil overs
a arms
adjustable struts
sub frames
torque boxes welded in
31 spline axles and c clip

I was hoping to find maybe a kit for some of these parts to help save a little cash and hassle. Any advice or suggestions on where to buy would be greatly appreciated.

You should also weld the axle tubes. I would look at some of the Maximum Motorsports box sets if I were you. This way you can get a whole matched set of stuff and I think there is a price break for buying it all in their box.

Also, with that suspension set up and the power you have you will need a built rear end.

Not really sure if I'm willing to shell out $4500. Also, I should have mentioned that I already have mega bite jr adjustable uppers and solid lowers.

Defiantly check out MM. http://www.maximummotorsports.com/. They should have mostly everything that you will need. Prices aren't too bad and there great products. For suspension there probally one of the best companies.
