Talking 1st timer !

i just found this forum site and im loving it! hopefuly this is my answer to my questions in fixing up my '99TL!

do body kits actualy help performance wise or is it just for looks? because im looking for upgrades in performance like on mountain and canyon runs.

i already got h&r sport springs and kyb gr2 shocks wat else can improve control?

I'm not an expert but I would think that stiffer swaybars would give you mare stability especially mountain and canyon runs. Also you could adjust your alignment/camber, just look up some autocross set ups, that's if your very serious about that. Otherwise, stiffer sway bars would make an improvement

I'm sure if you do a little search you can find the MSRP. I don't think they are cheap, unless you think that 150 is cheap, cause that's about the price that I have seen. Like I said just check around and I'm sure you'll find some.

Get the Eibach sways, they are awesome and the thickest ones in the rear I believe. Tire rack used to have them for 300. They definetly increase the handling and almost induce mild oversteer at the limit.
