p-s-t front end kits?
http://p-s-t.com/fekgmpg.html
anyone have any experience or comments on this product? (for 95 t/a or 94 z28) is it worth the 250? both cars have around 120k miles on em, so the stock stuff is probably shot anyway.
thanks in advance

I would say that it is probably worth it, although i don't know what kind of balljoints and tie rods they use. I just did my front end, Energy Suspension poly bushings, Moog tie rods, Moog upper and lower ball joints. I believe mine was around $270 for everything, including extra bushing grease. I got all of mine from Summit.
I love the way my car feels with the poly bushings and would highly recommend the Moog parts too.
And yes, i drive my car every day. 40 miles to work and 40 miles back.

I don't know all of the part numbers. Summit doesn't list the Moog pieces individually, so i had to call them. I think in their catalog it lists the Energy Suspension bushings for the upper and lower control arms. They also sell an Energy Suspension kit that includes the sway bar bushings and mounts, but i already had these.
They can tell you on the phone which Moog pieces they are. It's just the 2 outer tie rod ends (left and right), 2 upper ball joints for the uppercontrol arm, and 2 lower ball joints for the lower control arm.
The one difference i see between the Energy Suspension bushings and the PST stuff is, is on the PST bushings it already has the metal sleeving and the sleeving where the bolts go through(this is the gold sleeving on the PST link you added). On the Energy Suspension stuff, you have to re-use the stock sleeving, you only get the poly bushings themselves. Which means, unless you have access to a press, you will spend a lot of time trying to burn the bushings out. It's not too bad, but just be prepared. I used a press to do mine.

I also have used P-S-T on two different cars. If I recall all of the non P-S-T components were moog, and would also recommend doing this. The handling was greatly improved without much increase in vibration.
