The meaning of "upgrade" seems pretty subjective. lol "modify" is a probably better description.

Do this. Everything you're changing means you can keep the original hardware in a bin and put the car back if you don't like it.

Everyone is talking down the parts you bought, and it's hard to argue that they're not 'bargain bin', but many people have different tolerances and priorities, you may be very happy.

Thanks guys appreciate the feed back

But seems as if everyone on here is running top of the line parts.
But when I go on profiles dudes are still running stock
Wheels.. Mind blowing


I've seen people run 50k miles on bc and not a problem. But guess I'll see how it ends up
I'll be glad to say " you told me so if something goes wrong"

Perhaps that's because they just daily on stocks and have track wheels, or are choosing to spend their money on more worthwhile mods. Or they're waiting for their awesome wheels to arrive from Japan... the waiting is the hardest part. Lol

But you're right, plenty of people run those brands without major mechanical failures and don't mind the change in ride. My point was more that the coilovers are really the only of those mods you will likely notice a difference from. I really do hope you enjoy your car and the mods, just offering an opinion that I'm sure you were expecting to hear.

In answer to the actual question of the thread, you don't need anything else.
