K-Sport Coilovers, MRZ Strut bar (i honestly felt a difference). I have a TTR Rear sway on the way, with a R.A.W Twin subframe bar as well. On a u-car site they had a full underbody setup as well, that stiffens up the unibody tremendously, but i haven't gotten to that point yet. I have almost 1 finget gap all around, and it rides as smoothly as it did stock, but corners like its on rails. its ridiculous, makes me giggle when i drive it. Talk to Jimbo (Jimbos'ss) and Paul (06blackg85ss) they have the K-sports as well and love them.

smooth as stock and my current ride height is what im really looking for.... sorry to thread jack btw but consider it a bunch of free bumps. When you say the strut bar made a diffrence you mean cornering right? sry the audio guru is a suspension noob

you can def. set it at stock ride height.

You don't feel the difference so much while you're turning, but it makes the car tighter and more responsive at speed. A good test is to "toss" the car, turn, then quickly throw it back the other way. You feel the difference most this way. A lot of people say the car is already stiff stock, but i noticed a difference. I have the MRZ one, so it probably does more for looks than anything else to be honest.

Your suspension is already set up stiff.

30 and 35 series tires are lose and the price for tires is doubly lose.
