+1 suspension! My Tokico Kit has got to be the best mod I've done, IMO.

i had window tint, lol.. i just didnt add it because it was like the first mod i ever did..

Alright well heres what i have thought of so far.

Flywheel - ACT Prolite
Clutch - ACT ?? Im going to call mazsport and see what they advise
Suspension - I want full coilovers with adjustable dampers - Greddy has a decent one for the money, HKS?, Tein always has good stuff.

Whats everyone think?

I want to spend about 2000 so keep the ideas coming.

I was just reading in the new mazdasport magazine about teins and their coilovers that are electronically adjustable from inside the car. Sounds pretty cool to me, but i have no idea what the cost of that is.
