upper and lower control arms, drag launch springs, and some sticky tires.

tires, suspension, Control arms deffinetly and subframe connecters, You can pick them up weld on for like 50$ used. Good thing to have. You could have gears installed also ,not sure with out taring it all down:) Pull the pan of the rear and see what it says.

lol the tires look a bit new but then again they look a bit worn
but thank you all for the help
so how much does a good set of u&l control arms run for?

well you need control arms, but you should have taken him easy with the gears you gotta keep the foot down a bit until your higher gears, dont accellerate too fast or you will jump sideways. Tiburons are slow
