Shocks and tie rods are a little bit lower on my list, but I want to start thinking about what to buy for that project.

Same springs that came on the car.

The tie rods are lemforder from ECS Tuning. JV said the ones on the car were fine but we replaced them anyway based on the age/mileage. JV suggested Meyle HD, but given that they OEM ones lasted 170k miles I said screw it let's get lemforder again.

Shocks: I have double adjustable konis that I could have had rebuilt by TC Klein (I think anyway... Is he even still in business?) but since it's a street car I decided to go with new Koni FSD. The DA's are cool and all but if you're not racing they don't add much value and are on the stiff side on the street.
