ORIGINAL: stanglx2002

im going to do my suspension mods in this order:

1 subframe connectors
2 strut tower brace
3 K- member brace
4 Lower control arms
5 energy suspension bushings everything
6 all new shocks, struts, and quads
7 pinion snubber
8 camber plates (if i put on coil overs)
9 coil-overs or lowering springs (cant decide)

If anybody else has as more to add let me know and what do you guys think of the setup and the order?
This setup is going to a 400 HP car and i want it handle like a road race car but also be able to pull good becasue this is my DD. i want to stop spinning the tires. What do you guys think of this setup and is their anything im missing? Also should i get the coilovers ot just lowering springs?

FR "B" springs
