    Car:
    Honda Civic ek hatch

    General Suspension help.

    Hey guys im heading down to the bank next week to apply for a loan for some car parts, and im after some advice.

    Heres my situation.
    iv got a 99' ek4 hatch, that iv brought to build into a weekend track car. Im at uni for the next 3.5yrs and cus of a lack of money im concerntrating soley on the handling of the car(also reducing the weight). Later on during my course i wish to go all out on the brakes, but im not thinking of that yet cus its a long time b4 i start tracking. Basically when i finish my degree, I wanna have my civic completly ready for racing, so all i have to concerntrate on is building a crazy wild n/a engine too complete the car. At this point id probably buy a cheap economical runaround and garage the civic for track work.

    So far My list of parts im thinking of are:

    1. Tein SS coilovers - only cus ill be driving street for 3.5 years yet, and still want a little comfort, upgrade later for track.

    2. Swaybars - i already got these, whiteline F 24mm, R 22mm, and an asr subframe brace

    3. Camber and caster kits

    4. front and rear strut braces.

    What else should i include in my list of goodies for awsome handling? im not to interested in extra bracing yet cus id like to have a propper structual roll cage built later on, so till then its just the strut braces.

    i feel theres more things im missing on my list, i wanna go all out on the suspension and leave no stone unturned, and pay for everything i need in the one go with the loan.
