Was thinking about Improving my RB5 suspension as the OEM ones are probably getting worn out. Was thinking about EVO coilovers and new droplinks. Should I replace anything else ? I have an STI front strut brace at the mo.

Suggest you change all the anti roll bar bushes for Polyurethane ( powerflex for instance ) and consider adjustable top mounts so you can adjust camber etc, in future.
Uprated anti roll bar links would be good too.

There so many different kits available to be honest it's well confusing. I've looked on scooby shop and they sell a complete front and back bush kit for around £400. I think this is all the suspension fixing points and wondered if it would be worth the extra money??

Thanks Phill

PS I've been looking at this :-

They would be worth the money Phil but remember, they will increase the NVH!!

You could probably get away with just doing the usual ones, coupled with new coilovers, roll bars, drop links, mounts, ALK, Geom etc.
