I read somewhere that Full coilover set ups were just not good for street use.

Any opinions or FACTS here?

I Got KYB AGX's rear and tired stock up front Eibach somethin-or-another lowering springs, stock GSX brakes/sways

My plan is this:

1. AGX's up front to match the rears

2. Hawk black pads, Goodridge lines, new hi-temp fluid
(I think drilled/slotted rotors are a wste and am saving for big-uns, however, should I turn my existing clean stock rotors amidst a performance brake job? )

3. Aftermarket sway's, tower braces, 8 point

4. poly bushings throughout

5. (thanks to the sticky) AN ALIGNMENT! :cool:

---OR---
should I forego the $250 worth of matching KYB front shocks, live with what I got for 2-3 months and save for a set or Tien's/Koni/Etc... coilovers and a set of SCALES?

By the way anyone seen anything on fabricating your own tower braces or roll cages for 2g's?
