Complete FC suspension
My suspension on my FC is all out of wack(bent controls arms, tie rods, ect.) and I was just wondering is there was a place that sells everything I would need to compleatly revamp the suspension all around the car? Coilovers, upper/lower control arms, tie rods, am I missing anything important?
What would an ideal set up consist of for both daily driving, and the ocasional skid pad??
Thanks!

Aside from coilovers, control arms, and tie rods, you should be looking into sway bars, strut bars, rear camber adjuster link, complete bushing set, DTSS eliminator bushing.... I may have missed a few things here, feel free to add in.
If you intent to do roll bar or roll cage, then don't get the rear strut bars.
There are a bunch of chassis enhancement stuff that can be done to benefit the suspension... ultimately it depends on what you want to achieve.

I'm just messing around. There are no upper control arms on FC. Front camber is adjusted with aftermarket camber plates that come with most coilover setups. Rear camber can be adjusted in two places with aftermarket adjustable links.
Here's the link that tilts the subframe.

Here's the pair of links that tilt each trailing arm.

Seems like you need the big link and the pair of smaller links to get to 0* rear camber (desired, IMO) with a pretty low car.
