It just depends on what you want, but once you start down the road of springs and coils you may need camber arms and other supporting mods. It's all about how much you want to spend and the outcome you are looking for.

Thanks man -- this is what I figured. I was prepared to do the first option of struts and springs -- which included the cost for a full camber kit for front and rear.

Given the price of a front sway bar -- I might still do the first option and add a the front sway bar to the mix.

Is the no need for the rear sway on our cars?

There again it depends on you and your driving style. As a general rule our cars need more front bar to counter the under steering our push...adding more rear bar will make the rear end more happy. I initially installed the rear bar and had my front set to full soft. I got a snap under steer a couple of times and that is some scary ****. After reading about other experiences I decided to go full stiff and put my Nismo rear bar back on and she handles pretty good now. Also, the Nismo rear bar is stiffer than the base or sport bar, but not as stiff as the after market bars discussed.
