Want Better Handling Out Of My R33 S1

[nsta]

Hey guys, ive had my r33 gts25t s1 for around 3 years, and im starting to mod it slowly, and i think it's time to upgrade my suspension.

I have some king lows on it atm but with stock shocks, and i dnt think theyre working well with each other???

What would be the best way to go about things?, i've budgeted around $1100aud for some better springs and shocks/or coilover packages'

How well would Bilsteins with whiteline springs work? it'd be mostly road use, and some track work.

Ive also thought about BC Coilovers anyone heard of these???

My car has done 160000kms now, what else could be wearing out now, i dnt knw what to look out for, which is half the problem!, my m8 works at a suspension shop though and could tell me.

Are you serious?

I am sure SK would agree, for a street car with the "occational" track meet, coil-overs first, then a Whiteline "Handling Pack" with extra pinapples and camber adjustment bushes, then slotted rotors, decent brake pads (Fedaro?), ADR approved braided brake lines (doen't forget your rubber lines are now 12yrs old ) and probably one of the most important items; some decent brake fluid (motul, etc.).

That's pretty much what i have and have used this on the track with great results .
