Ok, so here is my car... I am not sure how much I have the front lowered, but it is quite a bit!

These are my struts... I bought the adjust-a-struts (from K1) Lowered all the way...

This is my disk brake setup...(also from K1) They are brembo rotors and calipers!

These are my wheels... I am currently running 195/50/r15's on the front with 165/85/r15's out back. I plan on running the 165's till I were all four out. Then I will get some 195's of 205's for the rear.

A problem I have... My steering wheels is loose. Like, really loose. I can move it up,down, in, and out possibly over an inch! What is the deal with that. I know when I pulled the gas tank, the bolt that hold the knuckle underneath was almost sheared all the way through! Yeah I replaced that real quick!
So what is my next step in my suspension set-up? I am trying to decide if I want to finish my T4 1.8, or get my car handeling first! I think handeling before power. What about you all?
My Ideas...
-Strut tower brace
-7/8 sway in front with 3/4 in rear
(Should I use a lowered sway bar?)
-Someday disk in the rear with an F1 proportion valve
Thanks for the advice! If I left anything out ask.
