Next mods..Suspension...What to start with?
My nexts are most likely going to be suspension...what order do i go in this process...my previous owner said an aluminum driveshaft helps the car no wobble at higher speeds..is that true...b/c when i excelerated upwards of 100 my back would sway from elft to right....i think maybe a ls1 driveshaft would do the trick on my car...
rather than that what is the order i should go on suspension modifications...

good shocks...koni/bilstein and replace worn bushings 1st.
Drive shaft will cause a vibration not a wobble, at high speeds, if it out of balance or has a bad u-joint.
Sway can be controlled with shocks, springs, sway bars and reduced bushing flex.

Shocks. Couldn't believe the difference. Do some springs with it if you'd like. Best to do it at the same time because it's kind of a pain in the ***. The swaying is from the poor control of the stock shocks IMO. I had the same problem and it cured it. After shocks/springs, then you can deal with control arms, sway bars, etc.

Next to a big turbo on my old GN the best money I ever spent on car parts was my Koni's. Totally transformed my car.
