Default Suspension Build-up

Alrite, I'm bored and I'm planning for the future and I'm trying to figure out dollar wise how much I'm looking to spend on the suspension.

First of all I will have a B18c5 in a 88 rex. This car will be daily driven but would like to make it track worthy, not so much drag.

I will need new shocks (preferably Koni yellows) and springs/coilovers, sway bar, lower tie bars, and tower bars. What is the best set-up for a decent price????

No cheap parts either, just quality equipment.

Thanks....

i have tokico illuminas and skunk coils. pretty good set up, but on my S13 i have tein Ha's and their 100% better than my shock spring set up and it has a very smooth ride too. so i sugest if you have the budget get fullbody coilovers. if not shock and springs will do too.

ok thats cool, so what does it do because i have alot of control arm play due to the modified radius arms i have. Maybe they'll help. So you say they bolt to the frame under the front fender, close to the towhook positions? Where does the other end connect to?

Also i saw an eibach anti-roll Kit for the 2g crx on tires.com a few months ago, anyone know where i can find it again and if its any good.

Also 88 Rex. Hydro conversion?!!? let me know how much of a bitch it is.

Got a picture of one of those fender things installed on a car? I'm having a hard time understanding what it does. How much do they run $$$ wise?
