Depends on budget
Hi there Ash,
Thankyou for your interest in Whiteline products.
In order for me to best advise you on suitable Whiteline products, could you please tell me what type of driving you will be doing in the car and what, if any, particular areas you would like to improve in the vehicles ride and handling. (General descriptions are fine; I don?t expect a technical explanation!)
I also would like to know where you are located, in order to quote on shipping costs.
Please also let me know if you require any other information.
Regards,
Case
well id like to improve the roll (minimise) and maybe better tuning or more tuning options for alignment

ASh.
Depending on budget of course but the first thing is to ensure your curretn shocks and springs are good.
If so heavier sway bars will reduce the roll to an extent. There are adjustable types but you have to check with whiteline for product info. The rear is usually the first choice to change. It's best to do a step at a time so you understand the difference each bit makes.
I believe camber bolts are available for your car front and rear and these would allow tunning at both ends. After fitting these get a good wheel alignment based on Whiteline's spec sheet. These are a good starting point.
BRacing such as front strut type and rear can aid with chassi stiffening as well as looking sweet. remember one at a time.
Upgrading the OEM bushes throughout your car will add to it's response, however there will be some additional NVH but we can live with that.
Coilovers and adjustable strut tops are a big winner and allow for the ultimate tunability of your ride, however this comes at a cost. THey are not cheap and don't be fooled into buying something cheap, you will normally get what you pay for.
in summary the above would be a budget of around $4000.
As mentioned set your budget and goals and dial in from there.
