Ok, thanks for answering my question :). I might just upgrade to threadless on my current scooter and get some legit parts. These are the things i'm thinking of

ODI Longnecks- Current scooter
Envy Strippers- Current scooter
Phoenix smooth scs - New
FSA Orbit C- New
Ethic Merrow forks- New
Ethic Lindworm deck- New
MGP 110's (keeping cost down)
Dialled grip - New.

ODI softies
Proto Retros
tilt scs!!
FSA Impact
Tilt Legacy Forks
Ethic Lindworm Deck
ANY PROTO WHEEL!
Grizzly Griptape

More expensive than the setup you listed but the one I mentioned is worth it!

I would go with something like this, but sadly scooter shops in new zealand don't stock most of that stuff. Protos wheels are ridiculously pricy, Impacts are not available and no stores stock proto bars :(. However tilt scs is doable. So I will get that instead of the phoenix smooth scs. I'm looking for a good intermediate scooter for both street and park. I'm quite light and short. Do you think the one I mentioned with Tilt scs would get the job done until I can afford some better quality bars? ( I already have ODI's and strippers on my current scoot)

tilt headset or fsa impact?
also, i'm thinking about selling my entire scooter and buy another one (actual setup is animal grips, district v2I bars, tilt scs, district headset, addict cajas deck, addict sword fork, 9tr wheels (all black)). I was thinking to het softies, heptrons, tilt clamp, tlit/fsa headset, district v2I deck, proto strikers and fullcore grippers all also black. I'll get money because i've been working all weekends of lsat two months so that will help. Would you do the change or not?

Bump
Thinking about keeping my scs

Proto Retros, Phoenix Cooper Klaar´s or some Ethic Almasty bars?

sliders or grippers?

i mostly ride street today. but i would rather have a wheel that grips better on park and doesnt slip than anything. any opinions?

i ride street and i hated my grippers. they felt nice, but they really cant handle street. without a doubt, get sliders.

you will have to mod the ethic forks to work with scs
and mgp wheels are very soft, which means they will flatspot and wear out easily
