Instead of a suspension upgrade… What about a car upgrade. ---

Just get the KYB GR2’s on ebay for under $200 shipped. It’s all you need for the street and are a good compliment for eibach street springs. [quote=“TheKID,post:5,topic:35938"”] Instead of a suspension upgrade… What about a car upgrade. [/quote] I bet stock for stock it out handles your car. ---
