Red/Clear Taillights or Springs for my 2nd Gen GS400...
Can't make up my mind.
What should I get first. The lights or springs/shocks/coilovers. What do you guys suggest. I have around $600-$700 to play with. Also please list sites for good quality red/clear taillights and springs/shocks/coilovers. TIA.

i'd say grab a used set of springs/shocks and the taillights. If that's not an option, get a used set of coilovers.

lower before tails. if you have 98-00 tails you can do the red/clear DIY with a dremel.
