alright, so as the title says im thinking about doing a bit of work to my gt's suspension. just shocks, springs, and cc plates for now since the pos monroes on it now are on the way out. also im trying to do this on a bit of a budget, thinking in the $600 range.

basically im thinking b-springs with kyb's and the mm plates. i know if i actually do end up going for it this spring, that the mm plates are a for sure thing, and the b-springs im pretty certain on, but i dont know how the kybs are like or if they will go well with the rest of the package? the other option i was thinking of are the tokico blues, but the $100 more than the kybs and not sure if theyre worth the coin or not.

car is semi-dd in the warm months, so i want a decent ride, but i also track the car every so often and would love for it to be able to hook a bit better than it does now (which is not at all even with the nittos).

i have the tokico HP's on my car. definitely worth the extra dough over the kyb's. the ride is firm but not too harsh. i picked up both shocks/struts on ebay for around $250 shipped.
