Well all I can say is really think about what you want to do with the car and pick the suspension that will best suite your needs. If your like me and want a good all around street car that handles well, launches well and stops well, comprimises will need to be made to each attribute. I decided that this car will be primarely a street car that goes to the track a few times a year and since handeling was important I lowered the car with an Eibach pro-kit(1-1.5in) and used the slp bilsteins(stock ss shocks) on all four cornors. 1le sway bars with a poly bushing kit in the rear only and Metco LCA. The car has a good stance but is not too low, rides firm but not jarring. It handles really well but street tire track performance suffers a bit (2.03 60ft) The ET streets really bring it to life at the track, mid 1.8 60ft times launching at 5k rpm. Its not great compared to a strip only set-up but I think its a respectable trade off . As far as the torque arm goes I've not heard any complaints from the stock arm and it works with the moser just fine.
