I know tomorrow im ordering the Hotshot Header from Rollhard. Anyway I think im going to go with the Ground Control coilovers, and some KYB AGX shocks. Anyone have a better/slightly cheaper idea?? I think that it should work nicely, but im open to any suggestions you may have. If you know of something better, let me know. Thanks

I don't know how much the GC's cost, but KYB AGX's and Eiback ProKits make a great handling combo for around $650.

if you want a cheaper alternative, figure out if you really need coilovers. &nbsp;how much racing (not street racing) do you do?

i personally dont like GC... they cost too much.... $350? or so... and AGX will run u $370 at GBC....
that is $720... that is alot.... advantages is that u can raise and lower your car, disadvantage is cost and the ride is harsh (note, changing heights is a pain in the ass)
i got Sprints + AGX and sprints cost $130 shipped...
if i was to spend $720, then i would save up 200 more and get Apexi coilovers

I have tokico shocks with eibach springs and the handeling is a whole lot better then stock. &nbsp;I paid 525 for the set-up. I say it was money well spent.
