1G AWD Suspension Kit? Complete Kit?

[Sayajin]

Hey guys. Seems my struts and left ball joint is bad so I need to get new ones. I figured that I might as well just replace the whole stinkin suspension at one time. Not that I can afford it. Well anyway I have been looking all over for a complete suspension kit for the 1g AWD and I havent been able to find one. I looked in our parts guide as well as I did a google search. No one seems to be selling a complete kit and I figured it would be cheaper to get a kit then to get the parts individually. I need the following parts:

Struts or Coilovers, preferably coilovers however money is extremely tight so it will probably be struts.
Shocks
Strut Bars
Swaybars
Springs


Well if anyone knows where to get one it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

ProstreetOnline has Tein SS full coilover sets for the 1G, they also have swaybars. Strut bars are available just about anywhere - check ebay.

The Teins MSRP is somewhere around $1300 - but Prostreet is selling them at $1100 with a coupon right now. If I had the cash, I'd snap them up.

If you're looking for a seperate setup - the DiamondStarSpecialties(DSS) sleeve coilovers combined with a Koni strut setup are a good way to go and about $850 or so.

I've currently got a Suspension Techniques rear swaybar, with Front/Rear Bushcur Strut tower bars, and Eibach Prokit springs with KYB AGXs and it rides decent, although I haven't been able to find settings that I really liked for Autocross, and they seem a bit stiff for the street.

I'm still on stock suspension... but if I were you, I'd go for the H&R sport springs and Koni sports for $719 because of cost (shox.com) and I've used products from both companies before. If you want to go cheaper than that, there's Koni and B+G spring combo for $679, but I don't know anything about B+G springs.

The AGXs are cheaper but I wouldn't put my money towards them. The damping is just too weak to handle aftermarket springs. The ride is too bouncy and unsettled... which is very significant at high speeds.
