Default full suspension

im going with trd springs, koni yellow, hotsken swaybars, and greddy front and rear strut bars.
the question is does anyone have this set up or does anyone have sugestions. the only reason why im going with trd springs is because of ride hight and the speed bumps at school.
if anyone has any other sugestions please feel free to tell me them.
thanx alot.
ps
im looking at spending 1200 to 1700 i think thats enough to get a good set up if i need more please tell me

if your going with TRD springs, why not get the TRD shocks? Probally cheaper than the Koni's. Check this deal out...

i personally wouldn't get the front sway or rear strut? But thats just me, and thats a pretty good deal. I would also get the TRD front strut. Really good products and you can buy them all from the same place!

BUT, if you have that much cash to spend i would go with coilovers! TEIN Basics are pretty good for around $850? When i mess with my suspension again ill get the Basics and the TRD rear sway.

The Ingalls rear strut tower brace improves handling a little.

But a rear sway replacement is the most bang for your buck.

if you ever want to leave the option of pushing your car really hard around the corners, stick with those hotchkis swaybars.

for that kind of money, i'd go with some ksport coilovers, hotchkis sways, and teh greddy srut bars.

no sense in getting springs + shocks when coilovers are only a few hundred more.

thanx guys for your replys. after heavy thought i think im going to go with the basics i just talked to my parts guy (the guy who i got all my parts for my integra and he said that he could get me a good deal on the basics.
my thing with doing the suspention first is that i really want to push the car around corners, i dont get a thrill going in a straight line i want to go autocrossing and mybe more. i know i have to dump alot of money in my car that is why i work all the time.
can you guys think of anything else i might need?
like i said if i build a car i will do it right because i did one car the wrong way and it always broke down on me and i dont what to go threw that again!
Thanx again.
P.S. when i get the stuff in i will post install pics and before and after but im just getting parts now. thanx again
