Welcome to the maxima.org forum. There are like thousands of threads about suspension mods. You may be new, but please learn how to use the search engine. It's similar like using google or yahoo, using keywords to find posts.

Anyway, most people start with FSTB and RSB. The RSB will greatly reduce body roll and with the FSTB, you'll get fairly better suspension. I own and recommend the Cattman(Addco) RSB for around $120. There was a group deal on Otto Racing FSTB for about $50. It should be good.

Now, if you want even better suspension, you need to get lowered. Most people prefer coil-overs because they are adjustable but they cost almost ten times that of aftermarket lowering springs. Tein and JIC are two popular coil-overs to get and they both cost $1k upwards. Some popular lowering springs are: Tein, Progress, Maxspeeds, Eibach and H&R. I might be wrong but I think they are arranged in a particular order such that Tein drops the lowest and H&R gives the smallest drop. Whatever you decide with, it's good to search around and know what others are using in their cars. Good luck.
