Default suspension upgrade!!!

well decided as for my christmas present to myself i am going to redo my suspension and put on the wheels and tires that have been sitting in my garage
plan on getting me a set of megan coils and replacing the front lowwer lca's and prolly new rack and pinion
wondering... were have some of you guys picked up your supra lca's from?
when most of yall put on your coils did you replace rear lower control arms as well? what about uppers?

thanks

I picked up a set of Megan coilovers brand new shipped for $880...I LOVED them. i was able to slam my car to the ground and still get excellent ride quality...
