DO NOT GET TOKICO BLUES!!!!

I had them on my old car and..... they suck to say the least. Save a bit more and get quality shocks or coilovers.

The FC right now is sitting on Tein (I hate Tein) drift spec I think (I didnt buy em). I have delrin DTSS elims and rear lca bushings but they havent been installed yet.

Tokico blues are good for what they are made for, daily drivers that will never see a track or spirited driving. Lifetime warrenty I believe.

if your doing all of that other work i dont see whats another $1500 on rear end.

i dont know whats availalbe for FB's, but i remember reading up on people doing the ford rear end w/ multilink suspension. or you could do the ford rear end and try to get an aftermarket LSD for that.

worst case scenario just weld it. im sure you could buy a few spare differentials for pretty cheap too, just in case you bust one.
