I don't know the answer to your dilemma since I don't know all the facts but if I was broke I wouldn't spend money on KYB shocks. I also probably wouldn't put a new Firm Fell tubular bar on the car. If I was broke I'd find a used performance bar or a factory bar and then buy Koni shocks. Last time I checked the Koni shocks were cheaper than the Bilsteins and the Koni shocks are adjustable.
