    ok upgrading

    So tomorrow im going to order the parts to get my car lowered.

    Offset rack bushing/caster camber plates/eibach prokit,

    so mike told me its probably a good time to get my front struts or shocks replaced since hes going to be working their anyhow.

    What are some good ones i should be looking at, im not even sure what struts are :D

    i say you should get something adjustable. if your ever going to do any racing of any kind they will be a great upgrade. also you can better tune your suspension to your liking.

    some examples of these are:

    tokico illuminas
    tokico d-spec
    strange adjustables
    kyb agx

    any of those would be fine

    Laurel Mountain has the best price I've seen on a set of Eibach Pro Dampers. I think I remember talking to someone at Eibach when I ordered my springs and they didn't recommend the offset bushings.
