Just to let you know, be prepared to get frustrated when changing the rear trailing arm bushings. An absolute PITA. Very time consuming.

Pretty much all I can think of right now would be the trailing arms, swaybars, and endlinks. The rest are pretty easy, its just the goddamn trailing arms.

I'd look into the mugen TA bushings I hear it's well worth the extra $80. if you doubt me search, look in the Road Racing/Autocross forum. They tend to bind up which make the car unpredictable coming out of turn @ high speeds. something about they are free floating on the pin and they don't provide the range of motion that the OEM/mugen ones provide.

DO NOT buy the es rear trailing arm kit unless you plan on running 1000+ spring rates. Spend the money and buy Mugen.
