To add to this, YYZ Springs, and because LSJ FE5... Koni Shocks and MAYBE struts if you have deep pockets.

I love my car now and did destroy my cabs at autocross, getting FE5 control arms and putting Powell cabs in. The Brembos were the final thing that game me a clunking and the assembly is moving around quite bad. Look in my sig and get that, only thing I would change is the XXX swaybar vs Hardcore and at some point I'd like to put the SS/TC swaybar in (plan on putting XXX in at some point too).

From Powell. Use the search and the prices are listed in the all things powell thread.

Although I would sell my hardcore bar for the right price.
