pete280z Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 Heh, yeah, try not to get carried away. Bushings, shocks and brake pads snowballed into coilovers, camber plates, MM rear brakes, AZC front brakes, new master cylinder, front sway bar, air dam, steering wheel, ball joints, rack boots, tie rod ends, bump steer spacers, wheel bearings, wheel studs, etc. Oh yeah, I've repainted all of the suspension parts "while they're off the car." Just typing this out makes my head hurt. This kind of upgrade can go way out of control. Go in with a plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cygnusx1 Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Yup, buy the whole bushing kit and the shock/spring kit. You will be very happy with that stuff once it's installed. I will still give you my two poly T/C rod bushings because they are not part of the kit. I keep my word. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete280z Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 I'm pretty sure the bushings you're talking about do come in the Energy master kit. The only ones not included are the front sway bar mounts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spotfitz Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Phil, If you do go the suspension route I have the spindle pin tool you can borrow. I second the poly kit and lowering springs with new inserts. As mentioned, this can snowball real fast. I ended up going the sand blasted and POR15 route with coil overs. I was down for 2 months. Start spraying everything with PBblaster right now. It will make disassembly go alot more trouble free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlderThanMe Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Go coilovers... I converted to coilovers for about $350 plus whatever welding would cost. Then some new illuminas are about $95 each if you can find a deal on ebay. JDMwerks is who I got my illuminas from... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
