How is your car setup now? If stock, that kit will totally transform the character of the car. For some it may not be the best choice. Adding a rear sway bar can take some time to get use too. It all depend on the purpose of use for the car. For street crusing I think there are better use of money to improve the enjoyment of these cars. On the other hand if you tracking on the weekend this setup is a good compromise. Just truly keep in mind how you will be enjoying the car and let that guide you. I have been guilty of fanticising one way and realality is quite different. This is only my opion, there will be others. Good luck and stay safe.

I am going pretty much the same route in my project except I am using coilovers on the rear along with their offset trailing arms complete with johnny joints and the built in bracket for the rear coilovers.
Not even close to putting thru any test yet, but that is my plan.
Good luck with yours....
