suspension questions

alright guys gotta few questions... i have a sn95 doing a h/c/i swap, nitrous, upgraded fuel injectors and pump, exhaust, and 3.73s. my question is what would be the best extras to add on suspension wise (besides tires, already have nitto 555r II drag radials)

Upper and lower control arms. You may also want to consider upgrading to 31 spline if you plan on running drag radials.

What are your intentions with the car? Straight line performance or a corner carver?

How occasional track runs? If its just going to be a few times a year then don't bother with drag suspension work more around a good street car with the ablility to corner you will be much happier. But if your going to actually take it to the track once or more a month then I would do a good street strip suspension so you can hook on the track and still have a nice street car. In other words make everything adjustable so you can change it for the different conditions. But most important be honest on what you want out of the car so you can do it right and we can better help you.
