Just picked up my 2003 TL-P w/nav and have a loads of questions for upgrades. I have searched old posts looking for answers and it only posed more questions... I have already researched brands but still undertimend on which way to go for best performance for the buck... Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Coilovers or springs?
Coilovers - Need camber kit (or recommended)?
Springs - Need camber kit (or recommended)?

Rotors - Brand recommendation not to expensive

Plus any ideas for performance boosts without spending a crap load of cash...

Please keep in mind when recomending products that I will be putting on 18" rims very soon but wanted to get the suspension done first...

Thanks for all your help...

you are screwed a lot of cash is going to be needed to do what you want to do to your car. 5 bucks here and there will add up. i think i spent about a gran on my car and you cant really tell what i have done to it.

Congrats, butters...
Coilovers v. Springs has more to do with how much adjustability you want and $$$ you want to spend...Springs come in different drops from mild to drastic. Coilovers can be pricey, but are better in the long run...
Intakes and headers can be cheaper to more expensive as well...Intakes such as AEM, Injen and Comptech are all $300 or less and all are fine. Headers like OBX are under $400 while Comptechs are a grand...
There are plenty of products on this site to help you...
Enjoy...

Hey butter,
Suspension:
H&R sport springs~ $150
Install ~150
No camber kit needed. You'll be out of spec for camber in the rear, so if you want to put a kit in, you can, but i've gone 22k miles without a camber kit and i'm fine.

Performance:
Comptech Icebox ~ $265 shipped
OBX headers ~ $400
Comptech headers ~ $1200
Exhaust ~ prices vary, but little or no performance gaines, mostly looks and sound only

Rotors:
My personal opinion, since i've also been looking into rotors
for about a month now is to go with Rotora rotors..You can
do some research, and you'll see, they are good price, and
areas prone to rust on rotors come painted on these plus
are double dipped for even more corrosion protection.

Thank you all very much. Sorry for the delay in writting back I was on vacation. I will go with the springs and rotor upgrades first. Will go for the IceBox and headers later...

If anyone has any more ideas feel free to email me...
