Adjustable endlinks are more beneficial because they can be adjusted to maintain proper sway bar positioning after you lower your car. They're going to hold up better than OEM, too.
$250 for springs $500+ for GOOD shocks (OR $800+ for coilovers) $270 for Suspension Tech sway bars $150 for adjustable endlinks Seems like a nominal cost when setting up a decent suspension system. Why skimp? -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money

Why skimp? No. Delete the sway bars, lower the springs down to 200, and drop the struts down to 220. Then 40 versus 150 becomes a huge difference. There's a difference between purely lowering and what you've listed.

There's a difference between purely lowering and what you've listed. If you're spending $220 for struts then you're not buying performance parts. GR-2's, monroe crap, etc. is just OEM spec replacement. So you're basically just going for aesthetics by staying as cheap as possible, so if that is the case just stick with OEM end links. My price list is a rough cost for a good setup, not a cheap setup.
