The car is my daily driver and I go to the track maybe 4 times a year. My plan is to use Strange adjustable shocks and struts with FMS B springs and sub frame connectors. Do I have to get coil-overs if I get the Strange adjustable struts/shocks? Also should I replace the upper and lower control arms? what would be most beneficial?

Thanks.

IMO I would get a adjustable Tokico kit with the shocks and struts for the strip,and replace upper and lower rear arms.

i'm pretty sure you don't have to use a coil over with them. they have a kit though.

HIJACK - does anyone know if their coilover kits are good? or would it be better to go with maximum motorsports?

ive got the strange coil overs and love em. you do not have to have the coilover kit for the shocks and struts, but if you do decide to upgrade to coil overs later you can. you could stand to just get a good set of lower control arms (hp motorsports is my preference) and they will plant your tires alot harder and make the most difference, however if you are on street tires you are gonna spin your ass off all the way through first and into second as you are putting alot more power to the ground. i love strange engineerings stuff its fairly priced and great quality, and all my friends run em.

I think I will just get the shocks and struts for now and save up for the coil overs. Thanks for all the replies.
