Shock replacement parts list?

Red Voodoo

You will be one of the few lucky ones if you can get away without buying new arms. That is, if you are generally concerned with tire wear. My car feels much more planted in the corners than before, but the camber numbers are still out of range even after the alignment. Knowing how expensive decent rubber is for the car, I did not hesitate buying the SPL front and rear pieces, especially at the great cost that I paid 3rd party. It's not a necessity if you are casually putting 3k miles/year on your car (tires will likely age faster than the miles will wear them down), but if the car is a commuter or auto-x/track warrior, then the importance is more stated. As for struts and shocks, I've been impressed with Koni's performance and reliability over the years that I've used them. The dampening adjustability is a bonus. They say the OE shocks work alright with the Swift Spec-R's, but honesty, I don't expect much longevity out of them.

Bottom line is that It's your car. Spend your money as you see fit. So far, your vision has come along nicely.
