There is so much info here that I thought I could get away with a new Thread.

As of now, my 05 Shinka is stock--not for long. I plan on eventually FI'ing the car, but intend to do some of the cheaper chassis/suspension mods first, starting with Progress Sways front and rear.

Will the following set up fly?: (likely in this order)
1. Progress sways front and rear
2. 4 point strut bar ( possible rear strut bar too)
3. 0.5" lower springs
4. 18x8.5" wheels -- unknown which ones, but light as is affordable


Are there any compatibility issues with the combining of any or all of these ideas with one antoher. I've read some of the threads, but trying to piece together tons of info is a bit time consuming.

No issues with the mods you have listed. But to let you know upgrading your shocks (along with your springs), and grippy wider tires (maybe around 245/40/R18 with your 8.5" wheels) will give you the most handling difference for your suspension mods. The front and rear strut bars won't make as much of a difference.

good start, but i would do shocks before a 4 point strut bar..

Unless you're autocrossing in B-stock, in which case 8.5-in. wheels are illegal, get wider wheels. Go 9 in. for 245/40-18 tires, or 9.5 in. for 255-275 section tires. Or man up and buy my 10.5-in. wheels for 265-275 section tires.

Where are you going to get lowering springs that only lower the car by 0.5 in.?
