Default FI guy who needs new supsension/brakes...figured I'd ask here..

Just finished my turbo project, made 307whp 212wtq on stock b16a anyways now i DEF need to upgrade my shitty stock suspension and brakes..Im clueless on what to get, please help me...a few things to remember, Im on a budget here...no $1000 plus coilover systems ( i was thinking maybe Tein Basic?) and i only want to run 15" rim so the brakes have to fit...This car is a pure street car so no crazy race setups

contact spoonman or perputual concepts, they have good deals on fast break kits, and as far as suspention, i would say Koni yellow and GC coil over with custom spring rates, the tein basic set up is not really a good setup if youre gona be doing any type of aggressive driving the spring rates are wayyyy to soft, also look in to a rear tie bar/ sway bar set up like beaks, comptech, SRR,
