  • I'm looking to upgrade my suspension

    My shocks are about worthless now, I have the stock struts on and take off rears from SLP. I didn't bother with the front cause I heard of how much of a PITA it is.

    I was thinkin about gettin the Bilstein shocks, and possibly bilstein springs. This will probably happen next summer cause I am broke now.

    I also have a significant body roll in the front end when I turn. I'm sure this is mostly due to the fact that I have stock shocks on there with a hard 90K on them. Would a STB make a big difference in reducing that body roll?

    What other suspension mods would you all suggest that I do so that I can get a more sporty feel out of my car?


    EDIT: I failed to read the guidelines. My fault!

      From my experience:
      Replace shocks with Bilstein HDs
      Leave the springs alone
      Upgrade swaybars to something larger
      use poly endlinks for the bars
      Swap your LCAs out for a rubber/poly BMR setup
      Install a new poly or hardrubber bushing'd panhard rod

      And then when you're done:
      Get a performance alignment, approximately
      -0.5 to -1.0 camber
      +4.5 caster
      0 toe

      Enjoy
