Well all my posting and talking to jdg and boosted on the autocross thread has me really going! My current set-up is as stands: 3 point front strut bar, 2 point rear strut bar. Front and rear Suspension techniques sway bars. Intrax lowering springs. JIC lower frame brace in the mail. and KYB GR-2's pending this question. I have a sport option GT. Should i replace the sealed struts with new ones (yes im willing to pay) or go source some other struts and install gr-2's? Also tires are being taking care of as well so thats no big thing. I need some more advice on what to do about the shocks though. Thanks!

hmmm, i might have to try it as a cheaper alternative..... but when you put a bolt in through the drilled hole, you're cutting new threads, so when you have to take it out teh next time, and put it back in, the bolt isnt going to seat right? besides that, how do you like your koni's? are they worth the price?
