    I decided im not going to go Stage II until my warranty expires (30k Miles left). but i wanted to start doing some small suspension stuff. the thing is i know almost nothing about suspension mods, so i was hoping you guys could give me some suggestions on this.

    Im going for daily drivability, but want to "tighten" things up a bit. i am planning to go for more power eventually so i decided to do my suspension and tires in preparation for the POWERR mods :bigthumb:

    hmm they say 3 year/36k miles

    AND they are pretty stingy about warranty too

    Don't do coilovers. A quality set of springs and struts. Then throw in a good set of Whiteline sways and endlinks and you will have a very nice handling ride that is daily driveable.

    You should have several options for a good spring/strut combo (RCE's Bilstein struts come to mind, not sure if they're for 11 or not). Any appropriately-sized sways should be leaps and bounds above stock for AX/track performance.

    Edit: Should this be in the "Tire, Wheel, Brakes & Suspension" section...? ;)
