Lower control arms, poly upper control arm bushings. Some of your stuff looks overkill unless your seriously going to be doing some RR competing

good set up the way it is suggest softer springs for the street. get adjustable shocks/struts to compensate. also will give you more tuning capability

Last month I put AGX shocks = KBY fully adjustable high proformance shock on the car. With a range of four adjustments in the front and eight adjustments in the rear. I was able to cut my auto cross times down by 4 to 5 seconds. I actually won first in my class in eugene oregon against some good compatition. And beat several suberu WRX in last weeks autocross in Salem Oregon. I understand how difficulst driving some roads with poor suspension and shocks.

I agree with the one guy. You might want to soften up things after your all done. Howerever, full stiff for my racing with lowered front and stock front end and a larger rear sway bar has helped since I bought the car 5 years ago.

you could compensate spring rate with stiffer swaybars.
