Save your self alot of work and just save up the money and do it all at one time. Atleast thats what I would do. I hate doing something and than having to go back to it to add more stuff. Just save up and get it all done.

I bought a kit today that comes with new tubular A arms and coil overs. what is a good spring hight for street/strip and also what is a good spring rating? the kit comes with either 14" drag springs or 12" street/strip..sound about right?

i have the 14' 140lb springs for the hatch. for a typical full weight car you want the 14' 175 springs. now for a road course car i probably would go with a 12' 300lb spring
