Default Advice on Suspension mods.

..On a Tek'd Classic MY00 would be gratefully recieved.

I'm going to have Eibach springs all round, but what else should i go for?
Links to the front or Rear...or both? Will it make a difference?
Anti Roll bar for both front and rear?...again is it worth having both?
New bushes?
Anti lift Kit.....worth it? and what difference will i notice?

...and finally, are Whiteline products good ones to go for?

Many Many thanks...John.

Hiya

I have an MY02 WRX, and I think I've followed a middle of the road approach which gives a great balance between firming up the ride and cornering without making the car too jittery on bumpy roads:

Eibach Springs
Rear Solid Droplinks
Whiteline 24mm ARB (stiffest setting)
Whiteline Anti-Lift kit
4 wheel laser alignment

This produces great results, making the car more stable around corners and the AL kit drastically reduces the 'scrubbing' understeer effect on full chat as you exit, as well as generally weighting up the steering feel.

Recently I added a Quick Steering rack of a SpecC - this is a fantastic piece of kit, making the car more darty and responsive, however I think it might be a bit of overkill unless you spend much time on trackdays. Makes the car tramline a little more too.

hope this helps
DaveR
