Well I have the v1 midlinks, will the info still be the same ??
So I guess I better get the camber arms and eccentric bolts then and see what I can do with the fronts

Thanks for all the info so far, and please let it coming

Ok, so here is the updated list, any opinions about this or suggestions of what to change, remember I want a decent set-up, not a track rocket

Hotchkis Swaybars or Stillen
SPL rear Camber arms and eccentric lockout kit
SPL Midlinks
BC racing coilovers

Not sure if I need the Whiteline bushings or not ?? any thoughts about that ??

The SPL Endlinks I will save for the other car then and just use the stock ones for now and hope they don't brake.

Other than that, does it look like I have everything I need ??

Thanks Micael

I would get the front LCA bushings, the factory ones like to blow out, and i think just about everyone of us who tracks our car has blown them out. Instead of whiteline, look into the SPL's , if they released them 2 weeks earlier i would have them on my car, instead i got whitelines cause thats what was available when mine blew out.

Pro front lower arm bushings for $149 , but others will argue that you should buy both.

The arm has to be removed to install the inner bushings, which makes it the ideal time to also do the outer. The outers are also prone to tearing, though not at quite the same rate as the inners.

SPL are sweet if the car spends more time on the track vs the street. If it's the other way around, I'd opt for the Whitelines. The rear bushings on these cars are far less of an issue, unless the car uses a true rear coilover setup (which yours does not)
