I'm Planning on changing all suspension underneath the car. I'm having trouble knowing the names of the things that I need, so i thought asked for some help.
I'm thinking of buying swaybars and most of the things connected to it to improve my handling. can you guys please help me on finding out what things I need to buy? maybe a list of performance parts will be great. |

There's a sticky on the suspension/handling/braking on what ever you need but basically what you need are coilovers or lowering spring, shocks and struts; front and rear strut bars; sway bars; end links. A good set of tires would improve a lot on the handling as well.
