That depends on what you do w/ the car. If you're racing, I would go w/ some type of solid uppers and possible adjustables. I have CHE adjustable uppers on mine. Then you can set your pinion angle.

The car will see ocassional track time. Mabye im just being cheep and dont want to spend, but i might aswell look into uppers then. Summit has a u/l kit with hardware for 199, have you heard anything bad about the kit?

keep your stock uppers for not. don't buy the summit kit... if you want them, just let me know. I have them in my car right now and I'll sell them to you. I'm going with MM adjustable lowers, and some type of upper... i just havent decided yet
