Got bit by the mod bug !!!!!
Well I installed my E-cutout last month and i love it. Since then I have ordered/upgraded Subframe connectors, headers/ory, airbox lid, wheels/tires, new radio, all new speakers.
I would like to continue to upgrade the suspension but I dont know were to start. What do you guys think should be the first few suspension upgrades without buying a new rear hahaha?

Most people start with the cheaper items first..SFCs, LCAs, LCA relocation brackets, and a PHB. After that shocks & springs if you want it lowered and a torque arm. Those are the major suspension components. LCAs, LCA relocation brackets and the TA all help with planting the tires more firmly to the ground. Shocks and sway bars obviously help more with handling.

Im really just trying to make it a nice street car. I have no intentions of making this a strict race car as it is my daily driver. For now I am just looking for the best way to stiffen the suspension and make it handle a little better.
Im contimplating my next order to either be LCA,Reloation brackets, and PHB or swaybars.

Hotchkis has a set of 4 for $250 plus shipping on LMPerformance.com
but check with KYSpeed too.
Hotchkis are highly recommended on here. And these will lower it 1inch.
I am also considering it but...roads are bad here...so i dont want to be dragging...im waiting to see my clearence after my exhaust and SFCs and new rims. It shouldnt affect it at all but just in case.

I just lowered mine with Strano's (1.2" drop) and LOVE the stance the car has. Night and day difference. Strano's are the cream of the crop. They won't sag over time.
If you plan on lowering the car, get shocks. Koni with Strano's is the cream of the crop.
