Anyone buy this kit from ECS?

Wondering how it feels. Thinking of getting this and some coilovers that ride well (or can be adjusted to ride well). Roads around here are brutal.

A lot of that stuff is unnecessary unless worn or broken.

Out of that stuff, I'd go M3 front lower control arms, M3 front tension arms, M3 rear subframe bushes and headlight levelling rod to suit M3 lower control arms.

Bilstein B12 spring/shock kit are a very good option.

How many miles do you have on it? If you are doing a suspension swap I would definitely swap the upper front suspension mount.

102k. I did the Merle HD lower control arms and front/rear sway links last year and it tightened everything up a good bit but I can definitely tell there is some slop developing somewhere in the car.

That kit looks great and I am sure it would really tighten things up, but maybe a bit of overkill for a car with over 100K miles. You may want to try m3 front sway bar and some meyle HD tie rod ends. That should tighten up the steering. The B12 kit is also great value. Roll Tide!
