    No worries, I'm just making a reference to a Japanese Anime character...who's known for driving on mountain passes.

    well an update on this I am happy with the H&R and Bilstein sport, the drop was not bad about a finger in front no finger in the back, handles better yet not as well as I thought, and the road is felt a lot more, not too bad though, I suppose it is just give and take, I will be looking into the rear camber arms and delin/poly bushings for the ffront, my question is, is it either or on that, e.g you can have derlin fron bushings of poly front bushings or are they different bushings for different places in the front, I am also thinking about getting the heim joint for the back, besides these listed, and jnenad camber correction which is freakin crazy, what other suspension upgrades can be done, speedy benz tune in?

    poly(urethane)? bushing are used primarily for sway bars, but lately there are kits on the market that contain control arm poly bushings among a few other bushings. as for the derlin bushings and heim joints, I honestly dont know what they are, so I think its best that Jeff explains it.
