Well, after having my car for 3 years now, my car makes a ton of noise from the suspension. It clunks, squeeks, chirps, bangs, etc. So, now i got some time and im making enough $, i figured i would do a complete suspension renovation.

So far, my suspension consists of GT4 rear strut bar, J-Speed front strut bar, Twos'R'us end links (F+R), poly uerthane sway bar mounts up front, S-techs and KYB GR2s.

What im planning on doing is gettin ST suspensions swaybars, new controll arms for the rear, TRD strut rod bushings (on there way right now), new ball joints, tierod ends, upper strut mounts or camber plates (depending if i can find some cusco ones), and re-finishing my rear subframe and front controll arms (powder coating and new bushings).

So far, i got the new ball joints and tierods and my TRD bushings are on their way. I figure after im done this, the car should ride like its brand new and factory. Ill keep you guys posted with my progress. The work should start in maybe a month or so's time. I just gotta find the parts first.

my shops at 1100 the queensway in etobicoke. i txted u the prices of the shocks.

Anyways, quick update, i decided i couldnt wait any longer, so the cars in the shop today gettin the brake lines done. It should be done later today or tomorrow afternoon. And im still waiting on my bushings mad.gif , but im gonna b placing an order for my shock mount today too. So every thing is ready to go except my bushings and shock mount. So once the brake lines are done and every thing comes in, the car goes back to the shop and should be knocked off within a day or so. I figure if the car is done by this afternoon ill throw my sparcos back in it later today..if not then i might do it tomorrow after work if im not dead tired and its not raining.
