im fine with teins they are not as stiff as eibach ones and also they lower the car bit less than eibachs. you'll be happy just order the tokico HP and find used CT RSB

why comptech rsb, i thought the consensus was that the progress rsb was the best option. Dont wanna hijack but do you use the bushings that come with the rsb or do u buy others?

i use CT RSB and im happy with it. i use polyurethan(sp?) bushings. progress is better i mean its adjustable but it brakes the stock links so its up to you

IMO Progress >>> CT Sway, upgrade your end links when you replace your sway. You're in the East Coast so they're probably rusted anyway.

As for shocks, I would get Konis.

you can buy moog end links for the sway bars, here is the link http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/x,ca...,parttype,7580

the rear is part numbers k90342 and k90343

for struts i have the neuspeed/koni sp3(same as koni yellow but these have 5 height settings over 3 for the koni yellows), but have no reference to compare to. If price is a concern you might wanna go with the tokico
