Default RE: Best "bang" for my buck suspension wise

Charlie said that he wants to carve corners. There's no reason why you can't make a good drag AND corner-carver, but it's not going to be cheap. Becasue you're on a budget, knowing what you want out of your car will determine what parts are the best for you to get.

I think that makes the Saleen kit that was suggested above a very nice idea. The only problem is that it comes with a FRONT sway bar. WTF? It's the REAR that needs replacing first.

Regardless, here are my thoughts:

1. LCAs are a damn good idea, drag or corners. The stock ones suck.
2. LCA relocation brackets: that's drag-only. No real point in this case.


IMHO the best handling upgrades will be as follows, in order:

1. LCAs
2. Rear sway bar
3. Lowering springs (which basically requires an adjustable panhard bar, adjustable LCAs--#1, camber bolts, and an alignment)
4. Upgraded shocks (Toicko D-specs are the best)
