Well I have modded my car pretty good now with go fast mods, now what should I do to the suspension? Shocks, Springs, whatever. I want good stuff but fairly cheap to. Thanks.

Well........that depends. What do you intend to do with the car? What are your priorities? What's your budget?

Street drive it, maybe drag track once of twice, maybe track drive it once or twice, mostly street use though. Budget=Low

Then, unless you want the looks of lowering it, I would just leave the suspension stock. It works very well, especially for the street. Personally I think people that run coilovers or very stiff lowering springs and never go to the track are silly, but that's just my opinion....

If you do want to lower the car, please use the search function as there's many threads covering the basic lowering springs (Eibach, H&R, RSR, HKS, etc) and/or adjustable shocks (Konis, Illuminas, etc).

i recommend ub. differential mounts. they are very nice.

you might also want to change the rear pillow ball bushings, change the shocks, (be sure to get new rubber spring seats)

this should tighten up the ride alot. you may also want new toe links or trailing arms.
