should i revalve
my bilsteins have around 20k on them, springs got 5k. wondering if the stock valving is good, or if i would benifit from swaping my gtworx springs to swift spec r's that are made for the mr struts. + they are a little lower.( i have to send a strut to bilstein to get a new tube installed b.c of a bad camber plate. it snapped off the top nut)

bilsteins and swift combo are perfect combe, plus the springs will lower the car and it will look good. as for 20k on the struts they should still be in good shape, unless the car has seen a lot of track time.

Depends. If you want to absolutely maximize the setup for racing - then yes. If more of a DD, not really. GTWorx and SpecRs are good springs. Slight differences in spring rates and drops. What will these be used for? Again, depends of racing. What tires are you running (racing)?

Its $75 per corner. But if that is your goal, I would do it. And with one going back, might as well send the other front too. Get the fronts re-valved.
As far as springs go, GTWorx are still good. Z1*+GTWorx+Sway bars (F/R) - great combo.

Nah, I ran the stock end-links. With an aftermarket set you could dial out the pre-tension, but its only a slight change.
Fronts for now would save you cash, then do the rears at a later time.
