thats pretty much it. I need new sturts and they are very affordable.
I am going to use them with a set of Eibach springs.
the car gets street/strip use.
I'm also looking to replace every bushing on the car. Is there a company that supplies a complete kit?

Energy suspension makes a complete kit. I belive it is number 11.18101

I have heard good things about the Eibach springs, but never used them myself.

I hated the KYB shocks on my Supra. But the ones for the RX-7 might be better

I just installed my KYB agx's with the Ebiach pro kit. All I can say is DAMN!, worth every penny. The drop from the springs is a little less than I was expecting but I think the car is still settling. The ride is incredible a completely new car. the adjustments are very noticeable from a stock-ish feel to rock hard go-cart stiff.

Now I know why everyone with experience says one of the first mods should be suspension.

I had the AGX's on my Accord, and they were awesome for the price. Also I get them at a discount, since I work at an auto parts store!

I guess I will go ahead and get them.
I was wrong though. I bought the Suspension Technics springs.

yeah I am getting a set for my vert. I will probably go with ST springs because the racing beat springs are way too expensive
