Howdy,

I have been doing a lot of reading about the different levels of driving needs (Daily, Street, Autocross and PCA) and the suspension that goes along with them. I found that for hard street driving that the best configuration is;

22mm Front Swaybar
16mm Rear Swaybar
Stock front springs and torsion bars
140lbs rear springs
Koni Adjustables all the way around

I am sure there are a 100 ways to go and everyone will have something a little different, but this would be a good place to start. However, I need to know what I have first. = ) Here are pictures of my parts. What do I have and whats the best way to go.

Thanks.

Eric
