no such thing as a 'kit' unless you buy the whole thing from attain, and thats like eleventy billion dollars.

i've covered this, so you get a link instead of an explanation since you don't feel like searching.

edit: the only thing i didn't make note of on that faq (and I need to updatet it), is that you can use S14 LCA's instead of your stock ones so that you don't have to press out the s13 ball joint and press in an s14 ball joint. the downside (or upside if you're car is a rolling titanic) is that your wheel will be pushed out an additional 10mm. so if you have wide, low offset wheels, you'll need to dial in some more camber or something if they are pushed too far out.
