So far:

Stillen Sways $400 Installed
KW V3's $2300 Installed
SPC Rear Camber Kit/Toe Bolts $300 Installed
Replace Compression Rods $500

Total: ~$3500

Still need to do:
SPC Front Camber Kit
Adjustable Sway Bar Links Front and Rear
Bushings all around


So, in short, how much have I spent? Too much and not enough, apparently.


I just included pure suspension parts. Some of you guys are grouping in brakes and wheels/tires. Wheels and tires...maybe. Brakes...are just brakes. I'm running stock rims and tire sizes anyways.

There are a few things you need to know before you start dropping big $$ on your suspension. Know what you're buying and what the results will be. I wasted more than a few $$ on buying the wrong adjustable a-arms which didn't give me enough adjustment to get back to OE alignment specs. So I had to buy the latest SPLs, have them installed and get another alignment. I was lucky to act quickly so my front Michelin's didn't suffer....much! Don't buy anything until you've done extensive research, it will save you a bundle....Gary
