Im not saying it doesnt have a purpose im just saying its not worth the upgrades when you first start out. What people do is run the car in kit form then do upgrades as necessary. For example when i first had my car i was running foams and adjusting ride height was becoming a problem so i got myself alloy threaded shocks. then i fitted my 2 speed in which i brought when i brought the kit but didnt put it in. the only way you'll tell the difference between upgrades if you run the car in kit form. Also what if you wanna upgrade later on. it would be such a waste of money on all the hop ups.
