Well, IRS is out of the question. I can't give two ****s about ride quality or handling on corners. And IRS parts are two expensive. SRA is cheaper and easier.

And I definately will use 28" tires. I got them already, actually.

I'll be using a TKO-500 most likely. A 5 speed manual, definately.

So you guys think stock style suspension can get me where I want to be? What do you guys recomend for control arms and that stuff. If I stick with stock style suspension the only parts I'm set on are the MMR rear coilovers with Lakewood 50/50's.

Stock suspension will get you where you want to be and more.

Go ahead and pick up some more stuff from MMR. They are a GREAT company. I have their front drag coilovers and couldn't be happier. I would HIGHLY recommend them. Make sure you replace the stock rubber bushings in the rear housing with a solid bushing. Solid upper and lowers. MMR sells the uppers as well and they are very nice. Any type of heavy duty solid upper/lower will probably do just fine.

I would also check out TeamZ suspension. They have some nice stuff.

That TKO 500 gear ratio is pretty damn low. That 1-2 shift is gonna be fun. . You may want to go ahead and invest in a full spool and ditch the LSD crap. 33 splines wouldn't be a bad idea either.
