I think the alignment is money better spent than on the springs, just like spending the extra dough on some great tires is money better spent than trying to strut/sway/and cross brace the hell out of the chassis. For the OP, dialing in a extra degree or two of camber in the rear, would probably be a better bang for the buck performance mod than swapping the springs. The point I was trying to get at is that that alignment is an added cost when installing springs, and arguably the alignment is what makes the more noticable difference in handling.

And for the price of that ASM strut bar, we're almost talking the ballpark of a HardDog roll bar, which is actually functional and does provide some chassis stiffening. Though it's probably not safe to ride around in without a helmet...

yeah, that asm strut bar is way expensive.

as for the spacers, i'm picking up my buddy's t1r set since he'll be rockin a new set of wheels. i don't know how many mm's the spacers are though. those with spacers, what size are you guys using? i've heard 7mm, 10mm, 13mm, & 15mm. i could be wrong.

i know toenvy, aka ryan, is running on 15mm's and it looks pretty good and flushed...

Are you talking about wheel spacers or drive shaft spacers?
