With 120+k, how good is the suspension? That always helps the drivability of any car.
SFCs
Springs (whether lowering or oem style)
Shocks/struts
C/C plates
Tires
(not necessarily in this order)

A lot of what to do should really be based on your driving style, your budget, and what has already been done to/with the car. Shocks, struts, and tires (and fluids as mentioned elsewhere) are things that are going to have to be replaced over time anyway, so whether they are done now or later depends on their current condition.

So you say all others are a waste of money yet you only have experience with MM and KB SFCs and you don't know what other brands there are? Interesting.

my other car had some round ones. the name started with an H. they were terrible. you couldn't even jack the car up with them. Griggs are amazing.....if you are building a race only car.

Hans Racecraft I saw had some round ones. Steeda are supposed to be in the same class as MM afa SFCs go, but they tend to cost a bit more and you have to sand/grind off the powder coating to weld them in anyway.

Thanks all again. I Think there has been a good discussion. My driving type is like I will only the car on Sundays or time to time. I think I will do some susppension to have a nicier look, frame connectors, wheels are ok (stock 17") , and flow masters to have a mustang sound that is what i like the most of this cars. Then I will be thinking in 4.10.
if I start to feel a real enthusiasm with the car(because I always drive STandard ones) then I will be thinking in stall, etc

Thanks to all
