I guess these cars being as old as they are would have really worn bushings. Anyone have a good suggestion on who makes poly urethane kits for this car? And what the rough pricing would be? Being that the car with it's power range and nice FR setup, I'm going to try and build mine more for handling than power first.

What is a good spring for this car? I don't want "dumped" ... just comfortably lower. I'm going with Tokico blue all 'round.

trd technocraft sell a Hard rubber bushing set, that is pretty damn good in my mind.
