Ok. I need to redo my suspension. As of now its all stock except for my H&R Race springs and my M&M C/C plates that i need to install. I need something that will be good for everyday driving. I have alot of bumpy roads around here. I know having race springs on a bumpy road seems like it would suck. well it did at first but im used to it. lol.

So basically what I want are new shocks and struts, upper and lower control arms, and whatever else you guys think I should get.

I have Bilstein shocks/struts w/ MM cc plates, Global West subframe connectors and Eibach Prokit. Feels great on bumpy roads and is 100x better than stock all around....love the setup.

I haven't done uca/lca's yet (mostly b/c my car doesn't go to the track) but from what I hear that's the icing on the cake. Not yet for me though!

back before Wes did his LCA's, and all he had was subframes
and mine is all stock
his subframes made his car 10000000000x nicer
thats probably one of the first suspension mods I do

Remember how low my car is? lol

I need to look at his subs this weekend so I can see how low they go.

you consider getting the bullit suspension kit? i think i may go that route...improved handling but nothing insane or over the top

the spring he has already are far better than the bullit springs, so he might as well top it off with a good set of RLCA's and Shocks/Struts.


I'd definitely start out with SFC's, then shocks/struts, then RLCA's. You'll be amazed at the difference that setup will make.

If I didnt have som,e great springs already, then I would probably get the bullit kit. But Im thinking something like some Blistein struts/shocks. Something like that. And some SFC, control arms, and better tires. lol
