Default suspension work

im working on a goal for my car and the steps on how to get there. iv been researching mostly hp gaining parts so when it comes to suspension im not all that sure on what to do. most people say gears-suspension- then intakes/exhaust ect. i have the gears out of the way so what would i want to do suspenion wise? and could you include price estimates.

p.s i dont go to the track with it and its my dd.

Default RE: suspension work

U/L control arms from UPR $200 for solid $300 for adjustables.
Strut tower brace $119
Subframe connectors zinc plated full length $150
M/T E/t street $160 per tire 255/60/15
Tubular K member kit$699 (includes coil overs)
Rear end snub $80

those are a few suggestions. the last two arent so common but i threw them in there anyways, there is wayyyyy more than that but just to name a few

If you lower your car with springs (which you should)...you will need Caster/Camber plates to get a good alignment...
