Is it possible to over-do it?

in terms of suspension. I want to get FSTB, Stage 2 front tie bar, WSP Stage 2 SFC, Progress RSB, and coilovers. Would having one or two of the bracing items be overkill? i know the coilovers are necessary. i really want to see what the max can do in terms of handling. you suspension guys have any advice - thanks guys

I'd get all the things you mentioned, not sure about the RSB though. I don't really see how it could be overkill.

Well don't forget tires, cuz if you have crappy tires handling won't be as nice as you would expect.

When it all comes down to it, your tires are the only thing keeping you in direct contact with the ground. If you're gonna spend like crazy on the suspension, and get some cheap ebay Wanli tires, you are holding back lots of potential.

Also, don't just get any coilovers... If you are serious save up for the JIC's. They are entirely worth it!!!
