Suspension stuff, Please Imput!!

Right now I am looking to improve my suspension. I plan on getting:

Eibach springs
Koni struts
DC strut bars and sway bars for front and rear

Is there any other suspension parts I should look at?
Should I consider or get a different brand?

Please imput back!!

DC sports doesn't make sway bars. You have to get a different brand. Before you post stuff like this, look around the suspension forum for what everyone else is looking at. We have spit out this information a million times. Look around first!

First, what do you want from your suspension?

Second, how rough of a ride will you put up with?

Finally:
Whats the spring rate of the Eibachs?


that and I wouldnt go with DC strut bars either, there are other
much stronger brands out there (Neuspeed comes to mind).

there are all sorts of things to think about like, is this for street handling, Track handling or autocross handling (All are different).

DON'T just start buying parts and slappin them on the car. Research first! Any way, there are many threads dealing wiht this subject but I think the best place to start is HERE and no, its not because I wrote it. Understanding whats going on when you turn will help you decide what parts to change and weather or not the problems you are haveing whith your car is DRIVER ERROR or not (99% of all handling problems that I hear about can be attributed to driver error).

Have fun!
