oh and it doesnt phase me if its used, as long as its in good condition, but the whole kit would be good (sway bars, shocks, springs) if they were used....
Suspension is my first concern, then maybe cam.... but got it priced for a stage 2 for $2000 without being chipped and tuned, rip off!! will definately shop around for that, they small things.... headlights, tail lights, steering wheel, front spoiler/lip, CAI, chip, lund grill, tint.... u know the usual....

Pretty sure you can purchase decent in house cams from the antrx.shop or by searching threads in the forums, why go anywhere else?!?! And alot of ppl on here have/use king springs which can be purchased new relatively cheap through the shop also. If your not sure of the part numbers for the front and rear, download the latest king springs catalogue, has it all there. Can't go past king springs.

I had king springs for my u13 and it did wonders for the handling. As for coilovers my leopard has them and i don't know about your state but SA roads are shit house and you feel every single bump and can get almost airbourne/massive scrubage when tree roots go under the road. it depends what you like but SA isnt a good state for coilovers.

As with OP, I'm looking to lower mine but I've heard to stay street-legal the car has to be 100mm above ground with 4 passengers.
Anyone know what will get me lower but keep me legal and give me a firmer ride than the soft Ti suspension?
Cheers and sorry for my retarded lack of knowledge.

im running king spring super lows in my u13, looks pretty good and can definitely feel the handling difference. (i'll post some pics when i get home tonight)
and as for the legality, im probably not compliant... however as my car looks stocko apart from everything else, it's not too much of a problem and i haven't been pulled over or anything... YET
hope this helps!

I'm also using Pedders Sports Ryders, they improve the handling a lot and decrease the body roll quite a bit. The only thing I don't like is they don't lower the car enough, my car is only sitting about 1 inch lower than stock. Ive have mine on the car for about 2 years now and they are still quite stiff! Good quality and quite cheap! My car is just barely legal height! To make your car super low you would have to go with King Springs or Coilovers!
