Default looking for opinions, my first build

hey guys, i have a 93 ls400 looking for where to start on certain parts,this is my first go at a build, want to do good research and get this done right the first time, so looking for some opinions on what you guys think is best..

any of these parts or questions, don't have to answer all jus whatever you want.

coilovers, brands? how it rides and what not..

or getting airbags worth it?

rim sizes

any additional performace upgrades for engine or suspension anybody would recommend

these topics have been covered multiple times in several threads. search around, read the FAQ, and learn. if you have specific questions let us know but 98% of the basics are covered already.

it all depends on your goal for the car; slammed low, good looks, fast, comfortable, etc you can have all of that but of course money is the key factor here. everyone here will say go coilovers which has the ability to go low, ride smooth, and if wanted can be converted to run with airbags in the future.

always perform all routine maintenance before modding, my $0.02! change bushings, fluids, timing belts, etc.
