M3 control arms, tie rods, sway bar links, shocks and struts. Transmission mounts, sway bar bushings.
In the rear,
subframe bushings, shocks, differiental bushings, m3 control arms, ball joints, rear, front control arm bushings, rear, rear lower control arm bushings, rear, rear upper toe arms, sway bar links, Sway Bar bushings.
Fluids, everything -
1) transmission
2) Power steering
3) brake fluid
4) coolant
5) differiental
You probably have about $3,000 worth of parts plus the turbo's which is about $2,000.00 in parts by themselves. I'd go with RB's myself.
So, about $5,000.00 puts your car better than it was at 0 miles right from the factory.

I am thinking about going ST so I will be selling my RB inlets that are on it. I have been looking into getting some new engine mounts. I have read good things about the 034 mounts. The water pump looks like it was replaced very recent by the previous owner but a tstat wouldn't hurt.
I have original RB turbos on the car now. If I sold those, the Hi-Flow downpipes, the RB Inlets, AFE Intake, and the other twin turbo parts I could recoop about 2k+ easily. This would make up some money for going single and help to replace parts. Thank you for the list of bushings though I will keep those noted. |
You can go with M3 bushings or something even more rigid. Daily drivers probably need to use m3 bushings. Poly bushings are too stiff for the DD.
