With that budget you aren't going to get much.Perhaps a VTS beam or bar swap and some Eibach springs on Bilsteins? ________________________________________  |

. Pm miles on here he will be able to supply you with what you need.A larger rear arb will be a good hit too, and some bigger torsion bars. |

Also how old are the wishbone bushes as beam mounts. That will make the car feel a lot better if yours are old |
