TEIN coilovers are adjustable, you dont need anything else. They take the place of the shocks and springs. so no KYBs needed. I have them on my 3g. and other than that, swaybars and strut tower bars are usually cheap and an easy upgrade. I did ST for swaybars, and DC sports strut bars.

right now Stillen is selling Brembo rotors and their own line of brake pads called Metal Matrix Brake Pads. I got the rotors and pads for a total of 120 bucks. (My car has only front disk brakes though.) but still, its a cheap and good for street setup.

im dumb, i dont even know how to do that, just go to Stillen.com, click search by vehicle, and a page with a bunch of stuff for your car will pop up. go to the list on the upper left, and hit brakes, one of the rotors in the list will say OVERSTOCK CLEARANCE, these Brembo rotors are only $85 for the set, and the Metal Matrix pads are only like $40. (Yes the rotors are Brembo, it doesn't say anything about it on the site, but they say it on them once you get them.)
