so far I have gone on..

http://www.performancecenter.com/produc ... Kits/0/0/0

and

http://www.morepowerracing.com/gadqdb96 ... 1056-4089/

are these companies good? never really heard of them but ive read a few reviews and they seem okay.

if anyone else knows some good websites OTHER THAN ebay or anything like that, please list them for me.
I'm looking for something relatively within that price range. thanks. and

I want to buy everything as a set, not individually, meaning : struts/springs combo.

It might actually save you money to buy seperate by the looks of it... but honestly, I dont think anyone on here has tried the complete setups like this... I think for the most part people are running tokico struts and tein springs; thats what Im running and Im pretty happy with them.

do you need to lower your car by tuesday to save the world or something? :lol: j/k

There is tons of info on here about suspesnion and to be honest there really arent many options for the solara... it shouldnt be that hard to know what works. The sites seem legit to me, I say pick one and go for it if it needs to be done quickly...

I bought control arm bushing from performance center and it took forever to ship. I got emails every week saying they would be shipped the following week, but this went on for a month and a half.
