Thanks for your time

it doesn't come with enough bushings at all.
You're much better going to whiteline products from www.pdm-racing.com

Been doing some reserch on what setups work good and what not......so far looks like I'm going to try and get some KYB's and the pro kit for now, along with the Stiffer bushings..........I need to get use to this whole RWD thing now, LOL.......coming from always owning FF cars......some can say I've joined the bandwagon but whatever, I'm just trying new things

well, usually a spring and shock setup is more for looks than handling, because once you lower the car, you really run out of suspension travel in the front.
your best bet is to get a coilover, even if it's something like a tein basic dampener.
It will cost the same but you'll get more performance, especially since both are non adjustable.
step up to tein flex's if you want a nice adjustability setup that you can autocross on and drive daily
or if you dont mind the very harsh ride, HEs.

I thought the Kyb's are adjustable as least the AGX, which are the one i was palnning to get. I also heard the prokit's kept a very "stock" feeling since they have a progressive spring rate? I always thought the tein setup was for the "drift" in mind. I have alot to learn I quess?
Thanks for your replys

with a stock feeling you will get a stock performance. not what you want, just keep the stock springs then!!
AGX's work well with the right spring setup. If i was to do it all over again I would not duplicate Euro's setup. Her setup is very bad-ass, but there are alot of little tricks done to her rear suspension in order to make the front understeer less. AGX's are good but the rears aren't quite stiff enough.
Yes, you have alot to learn, but try to think of it as a fun experience, not an expensive painful people are dicks about it experience. We're just trying to help you out.
and lastly.
if you want handling, get away from progressive springs as much as possible. they are horrible.
