Diveshaft or some suspension work like LCA and adjustable UCA with relocate brackets, and Eibach pro-kit with tokico adj struts

One piece driveshaft and good set of springs. Suspension is overlooked too often. Can drastically change the car and how it drives.

ugh redfireshaker your car looks too damn good.
lol, thanks man.

Ok, let me list the stuff that I forgot to list that I already have. For the track I have a set of 17" 99-04 GT wheels w/ MT ET Street DR's. I have 4.10's already, I have FRPP K springs w/ stock shock/struts. Now, the problem I just ran into is I sold my stock wheels. So I will still have the 20's up front. I'm not sure how much that will hurt me but it probably will.

Now, someone please explain to me why the $500 for a DS is worth it? I'm getting mixed reviews. I've heard didn't do anything to best thing I did. So please explain to me why I should get one. I'm leaning towards LCAs and UCA. I can get the spydershaft pretty cheap if I decide to go that route.I don't want headers because I've already had enough headaches with my exhaust. I give up on it. Between leaks and rattles. GRRRR lol. I was almost thinking of saving up for headsand cams.380-400 rwhp NA sounds pretty nice to me.

Keep the post coming guys. Thanks a lot

The car already has intake/tune, exhaust (not interested in headers), wheels/tires, pulleys,shifter, and gears. What should be my next bang for the buck for around $600. My cars an 06 GT Speed. Its a daily driver. I'd like nitrous, but so much more is involved when you get it. IE: New plugs-$100, Tune- $200 or so for a dyno tune, $35+ to fill the bottle.... And so on. Any suggestions?
600 will buy you a nice set of struts and shocks
