If you want to keep that factory feel, get a used sport suspension from someone who upgraded.

The going rate at salvage yards for a set of shocks and springs last time i checked (a couple years ago) was $300-400. I know on other forums most people can't give away stock suspension parts.

I think I'm going to concentrate on the performance first. For the 3-4k
I would spend on rims/tires/lowering, I can get the ECU flashed/piggybacked and
probably have enough left over for the exhaust and downpipe.
