Alright guys. I've been looking at suspension parts and floating different ideas around all winter long. Here is what I have come up with so far (after changing my mind x thousand times):
MM CC (4 bolt) plates
MM standard offset front lower control arms
MM front and rear coil over kits with Bilstein shocks/struts
MM adjustable tie-rod end (Tapered)
MM Heavy Duty Torque Arm
MM Panhard Bar
MM Extreme Duty non-adjustable lower control arms
MM Full Length PC sub-frame connectors
Hypercoil Springs (spring rates TBD)
Aluminum rack bushings
and then possibly new sway bars/bushings, if I wish to push back the project another month.
The list above pretty much permits all of my current cash to be put into the car (with enough left over to install the parts I can't myself). Is there anything else someone would recommend, what about balljoints? My car is barely over 50k on the odo. The car will see some auto x and some track so I'm not looking to lean one way or the other as far part dedication is concerned. A K-member is out of the question right now as well because of $ and I won't be pulling my motor for another year or two. Finally, anyone who has any of these parts, what do you think, your opinions and such.
I'm one of those guys that likes to go all out on parts and not wait for stuff to break. Do it right the first time, ya know? Anyways, thanks guys.

And you know what you need (k-member) All you need to figure out is the spring rate. With your plan you might want to ask MM but they are going to recomend somewhere between 300-375..300 coil over they say has similar ride quality to stock but with alot better handling....I am going to be on the same quest as you pretty soon so good luck and keep me informed.
