Default coil over systems?

|Hey Guys!

I have an 03 GT slightly modified now but I want to do some serious suspension and brake work before I slap the turbo kit on.

This car will be a touring car/autocross, so suspension is key for me.. Im looking into a coilover setup and wouldnt mind some suggestions.... Im looking to spend 2000<..

Thanks guys I appreciate it.

Andrew

Maximum Motorsports makes a very nice front suspenion setup (ie. K member, a-arms, coilovers, etc).

alot of ppl will tell you to go with MM but what the OX told me before he was banned that because they are the sleeved type coilover that its not the best kind to use for what your looking to do, you can still get them but not top of the line coilover.. QA1 is a good brand and a few others but i can't think of them right now.

QA1, strange engineering and competition engineering all make threaded struts and shocks for coilovers.

MM, Griggs, QA1 etc.

A lot of companies make them. Just make sure that you match the spring rates to the shocks/struts. Also, I would plan everything ahead and do it in the right order. If you just do some stuff and then decide to change something else, you could end up doing stuff twice for no reason.
