Default ej1 suspension swap

check it out, i crashed my car into a gas station the other morning resulting in SLIGHT damage to the front end and no damage to the motor. On the other hand the front suspension is fkkdd. i need a new axle, new wheels and tires all around. Also snapped a lower control arm bolt, broke some brake lines, bent the strut assembly and the skunk2 coils, not to mention whatever has been tweaked that i havent noticed yet. Since there is some major work to be done, im goin to buy the good ****. MY QUESTION what suspension swap can I do for my 94 coupe? Ivefound a CTR 5lug conv that i was interested in but i dont know what else it comes with. thanks guys for any help

you need a WHOLE front suspension, all that **** is bent from the looks of it, so swap out the whole suspension for an unbent/fucked one

damn that car could be totaled. If its just the control arms, axles and suspension then it would prob be fixable but if the control arm mounting locations and some of the sub frame is bent say goodbye to your car. Its likely something is bent just besides the suspension but we cant tell too much from the outside.

you need to go to pick a part that **** is probably not that bad you could always replace your subframe
