    Suspension Bushings!!!

    Yeah get HD upper strut mounts, new ball joints, R32 rear control arm bushings and either poly or normal front control arm bushes. Get new tie rods and swaybar end links as well and you car will transform into a completely different beast to drive.

    Try German Auto Parts, I got my all my suspension refresh parts from them. They're good to deal with and have pretty reasonable prices too.

    Give or take the same as ECS, it's too bad. Most of my shipments were 60-70 bucks.

    And are the full tie rods necessary?? Would just doing the ends be good enough?
