Well in getting C springs, upper and lower control arms, sub-frame connectors, whatever shocks/struts, JBA h pipe to match the exhaust, plenum + 70mm tb, cold air intake, and some things for my clutch like the quadrant and stuff. Yea, didnt want to do nitrous. Trying to go for a N/A thing. Its morefun when accomplished. Oh yea im looking for shocks that are good for drag and launching but dont hurt my dd. thanks

sounds like that little bundle of parts will suit your needs nicely.

As to shocks/struts, you really can't go wrong when you get bilstein, strange, kyb, tokico...those are the top brands i know of
