Yes, i know this question is asked daily, but im just unsure where to go with my car at the moment. I want to keep improving on it and making it quicker.

Give me your best opinion. Most mods are in the sig.
 
It looks good. Dont have a pic here at work.
Handling is where i think im going to go. Just where to start?

Only suspension mod I have made is subframes really.

I am thinking of starting with lower rear control arms.
Or would it be better to do shocks/struts or springs first?
 
I was lucky enough to replace every aspect of the suspension on my car at once (about 4k worth). I did coil overs all the way around with new struts and shocks and tubular everything... except the K-member, I won't replace that until I pull the motor. It handles like a champ and it is ready for some HP now, hopefully start building my motor this summer. Depends what your goals are. I want a very clean, nice ride that handles well and looks good enough for car shows. I don't really drive it alot, about 2-3k miles a year. The options are endless for sure.

I would do suspension as well. Beefing up the trans would be good to since in ur sig u dont mention what kind u have. Also how did ur mac LT's do as far as fitment on the TFS TW's? Need to know I am trying to decide what :LT's to get bbk or mac. Thanks
 
Yea definately going to do the suspension route.
I have a stock T5 tranny. I just dont think im going to replace that until it breaks. I'm gonna keep a bit a reserve cash in case that happens.

I actually have short headers and not long tubes. One thing I regret about my headers were at the time I had no money and just went with the cheapest. The Mac ones I have are rusting. If I did it again I would get stainless steel ones.
