Your looking at ~500 minimum.... thats with springs, and there is always the chance of bolts being frozen up and having to cut things which is a lil more $$.... then the alignment...

You don't want ebay coils or ebay springs.

I spent a TON on my suspension. I bought:

Ground Control coilovers - $300something
KYB AGX shocks - $400something
Blox upper control arms for camber adjustment - $100
Blox lower control arms - $100
Random bolts and stuff - $25

In the end it was about $1000, but I got the best stuff (except that the Blox doesn't use pu bushings). I plan on autoxing this car so I wanted to get a good set up. I love stiff rides (no homo), and Skunk2 springs that drop 2.5" are stiff. I sold a set last year. I wish my GCs had a higher spring rate, I have my KYBs at the stiffest setting and I still wish it was tighter.
