Some camber bolts and new panhard bar would be good, not that expensive. Alignment might be a good idea too. It isn't like you are slamming it so not that many new parts are needed.

I voted 8.8. I would start researching suspension mods then buy them part by part instead of a whole kit.

Here's a good post to read thorough

I'd go 8.8 with 3.73's, you got some nice wheels already and I agree with getting your own suspension kit, I did a pro-kit with Tokico HPs...Pair it with some sway bars down the road and you'll have a car that rides on rails LOL (Well, close enough)

My vote is rims and tires..IMO all of our stock crap rims kill the whole cars look. I say start with the rims then go for GO MODS so in the meantime your car looks sexci while you save up for the performance stuff.

Thanks for all the help guys and thanks for the link lurkmoar, that helped.

Anyway here are my plans:

-I don't like to do things half way, so I've decided on the 8.8 Rear End w/ 3.73's. It's quite expensive so I think I'll start saving now and buy it later.

-As far as suspension, I'm going with Tokico D-Specs, Eibach/FRPP/H&R Springs(haven't decided), and a BMR Rear Sway Bar.

-LCAs, UCAs, and aluminum driveshaft someday(maybe when I get a supercharger)

-Rims and Tires when the tires need to be replaced.

Since you're going the swaybar route, have you checked out the Hellwig rear sway? Its adjustable....I probably woulda went with that one if I wasn't so impatient LOL

Eibach and FRPP are about the same so you can't go wrong with either...Don't know much about H&Rs...Good Luck with all this
