doing suspension upgrade

coilovers, tension rod, ruca, toe link, forward link, inner and outer tie rod ends, tie rod boot is what i am changing just thinking about anything else that will stay under 4-500 that i can add to the list before i do it. i was thinking subframe bushings, nismo rack bushings, and nismo power brace. was thinking sway bars but that can be put off for another time.

thinking about other things that could be changed out while all of that is being replaced. if any suggestions that i didn't list please let me know.

also on another note a part of my subframe got slightly bent. the mechanic jacked up my car and it and didn't center it under the bushings, it was off so it bent up the plate. if you are looking at your rear tire its the part front side of the car of the rear tire, it's a place where you would put the subframe bushings, it has a small bar bolted down to the body coming from that. http://www.driftfactory.com/memb.php it's the first picture. that got bent up on the right side of the bushing in the picture. just wondering if that can be straightened out?

well my suspension is pretty busted, it being a 91, and i'd like to take care of that first instead of rolling all over the place with my loose suspension.

all you need is 2 way lsd, good set of coilovers and a bucket seat then go have fun.
