Alright, well swap done, now its time to pay a little bit more attention to my suspension set up, as it sits now I have s techs and a eg6 strut tower bar and omni lcas...That's it, I was thinking about buying some kyb agx's and using the tein springs but I didnt know if that would make that much of a difference, What do you think would help my handling the most for $350 or less?

 

getting shocks is definately a good thing. agx will be fine. i always recommend illuminas. you can get them under $350 shipped on ebay from a reputable buyer.

however, you also should spend your money on good tires for the biggest impact on your cars handling and grip. true you need to have good control of your suspension through shocks, but tires are the most important.

if your tires are already ok, then leave em and get the shocks.

you also should consider getting a rear swaybar to dramatically improve your handling.


all these things combined certainly are above $350, but like i said, just geting illuminas is a good start.


(btw, for everyone else reading, THIS IS HOW YOU ASK A QUESTION! say what youve done to the car and say what you are willing to spend. dont just ask what should i do, or whats the best value or how do i make my car a touge machine...blah blah blah)

 

Thanks man, and yeah, my tires only have about 3000 miles on them, kumho ecsta 712's which are pretty good on the ever so popular slipstream, Thanks for the help, I'll do some research on the illuminas

 

712's are ok then.

s techs with illuminas, then save up for a rear sway bar, and you suspension should be pretty good for daily driving.

 

Personally I'd get the sway bar first.

 

You should do a small diy of some brake ducts. i cannont stress how important having reliable brakes are.

 

my tires are fine, I found a Blox rear sway bar on kteller.com for $120 shipped, I'm going to order that now then just buy the illuminas and ground control sleeves at the same time

 

This is on an EG? Use a BEAKS kit if your using a 22mm+ rear bar.

no. beaks kit can still lead to sub frame failure.


i just want to add that it also depends on your spring rate. soft springs can lead to failure faster.
