What suspension mods do you have done?

MM C/C plates and Steeda Sport Springs (previous owner). I was considering getting new shocks first. got an recommendations? I was also playing around with the idea of MM panhard bar to help locate the rear better. Not to sure what to do first as I will have to do it in small steps. Got a ring to pay for.

Depends, do you daily your car? are you planning to do coil overs or traditional spring? Also, how often do you like to do the canyons thing and how hard do you really push it every time? Many classes prohibit the use of a panhard bar and if your main use for the car is drag racing a panhard bar isnt going to help much, but for an aggressive/street manners car that will see spirited driving and strip use i would recommend this set

and your springs should work well with those
and these control arms

that would transform your car into a new animal, nice and planted on the street and would help with keeping the car steady on launches and down the big end on the track

My car is not my daily. I want a balanced car that leans a little more towards the drag strip. I am not a frequent canyon runner but I would love to be able to drive a little more spiritedly through them when I do go through them.
