maybe new strut boots and new top mounts since the bearings might be blown. Lots of suspension grease. If sway bar bushings are still good don't bother, but having polyurethane bushings would make a nice upgrade. If you got money get some suspension technique sway bars. Then you're set unless you want the factory gt4 rear strut bar.

Your question is not clear, we don't know what exactly you are doing hence we can't pin point what you need. Suspension change can vary, you have stated that you have struts and Eibach springs, what else you would need? Maybe sway bars for better rotation and handling?

Well if you put it like that. You need tools, jack stands maybe a lift if you have access to one. You definately need a breaker bar to get those damn bolts off. hmmmm... Oh yes lots of wd40 or pb blaster. O yeah suspension grease and you are set.

If your rubber are broken and such, it would be a good idea to replace them. The bumpstops should be replaced if their jacked up.
