It depends on what shall be done, harder springs are sheap but open up the dampers cost alot.

KW V3 was alot better than I believed, it was a surprise I think they are a little too soft on the road but on the track I kind of liked them.

I guess I can use ~60% out off my car right know so im planning on just get as many track hours as I can because that will make mutch faster track times them upgrading to better parts right now.

My setup is AP swaybars front + rear both at the softest setting, AP endlinks, GTspec strutbars front+rear, greddy rear bar, toyo 235/40 18" R888 GG, KW V3 Inox Coilover. ride hight not slammed, just as low as possible but with still straigt linkarms. weel alignment was setted quite forgiving with toe-in and just a few degrees camber.

Turn in was remarkable good even with toe in, loads of grip and almost no body roll.

it can of course be setted more aggresive but right know there is no point in it before Im reaching closer to 100% usage of the car. =)

Its red with silver wheels, and has its Hatchback open, if you look at your rear passenger window, look directly up, there is the RED FC
