before I start to gain some HP, I want to improve handling a bit....

so what Im looking for is something that would increase basic cornering stability and decrease body roll without lowering the car or installing aftermarket springs (too bumpy roads here)...

what Ive been thinking about so far is:
Strut tower brace (from Steeda?)
rear antiroll bar (stabilizer)
and maybe lower control arms???

with budget of about 800 $

Any experience, suggestions before I buy something useless very much welcome!!!

 

Just so you know, a strut tower brace will do little for handling. I have one and it looks great and all, but for what your asking and wanting now I would go with a set of adjustable shocks and the roll bar. Also, lowering the car a little won't nessarialy make your ride rougher.

 

I hate to blow your budget, but I had installed this week:

Tokico D-specs shocks/struts
Steeda lower control arms
Steeda adjustable panhard bar
Steeda sport spring kit
Steeda G-trac brace

About $1300 in parts.

All I can say is WOW! I am very pleased with the improvement in handling.

Thanks to Brenspeed for the great service!

 

thank you for inputs!

 

I don't see the G-trac brace for the 05-06. Was it for one eariler?

I went and looked at Brenspeed and saw it. It wasn't on the Steeda site that I saw..??? oops

 

Hellwig Sway Bars $300 group buy, just call and ask for Nancy. They are solid and adjustable. If you buy the G-trac, make sure you get the right one....I had a vendor sell me the wrong one and then supply me with over a dozen washers to "make" it work.
