A used nitous kit would be your best bet, just get a nice 50 shot, Zex Kit, people are always selling used kit for 200 to 1000 bucks, depending on the brand, that would give u the most hp for your money. You would need more to build the engine to take the nitous and not **** up to

clarify what your looking for and maybe we can help you. What setup is on it now and are you only trying to buy new springs or can the 300 be for anything? If your just looking for springs/coilovers, I would suggest the Groung Control setup. If your still running a 3 inch drop on stock shocks, Id suggest saving that 300 dollars, because they will blow in time. Best of luck to you!

Depends...somewhere around 800 dollars if you go with Koni Yellows...Id suggest KYB AGXs....with GCs...a little cheaper! Well..on second thought, if you don't want the adjustability or are not planning on road racing this car...go with some lower end shocks (Koni Blues or Illuminas) and just a slightly lower drop!
