Based on all the reading here and good old physics, the first mod should be bushings and last mod should be ARB if at all needed. Also, front end dive is shit, must get tighter springs before ARB. For Street Fighting and novice Track Events. Order of my mods will be:

1.) M3 Rear sub frame bushings
2.) 17" wheels with larger front non/RFTs
3.) Camber Plates/CoilOvers
4.) Limited Slip
5.) M3 arms ?
6.) ARBs ?

Stock RFT/18s will be religated to touring only. For refrence, my only performance mods will be muffler, intake, cool carbons and brake ducts. Stock power is plenty for me.

Only reason I am changeing to coil overs are because the shocks are pure junk and springs to soft. I'm not sure whats worse, the rear bushings or the shock/springs. Also, my experience with springs show body roll can be controlled with stiffer springs and stock ARBs
