Welcome! Nice looking car.

I just did a partial suspension refresh on my '02 S, which included two new track rod ends, one rear lower control arm, new Bilsteins and all accompanying strut hardware. It made a BIG difference. Definitely stiff enough for me given a majority of what I will do is street driving; however if you plan on seriously tracking your car I'd consider PSS10's (and a deeper, baffled oil sump).

I'm in Seattle proper. Wave if you see me (I'm driving it on the non-rainy days this week...)

Gorgeous car, Nmbrsix! I really like those wheels. What part of town are you in? I'm north of Ballard, just south of Carkeek Park.

I just ordered nearly a thousand dollars worth of suspension parts from Pelican, and that doesn't include struts. It's going to take some time for me to get used to the insane parts prices for these cars. I'll get the struts later, after my sticker shock has worn off. It probably doesn't need every part replaced, but it makes sense to replace it all while it's apart.
