- BMR Panhard Bar: $99 (Worth it to go for the Adjustable one for $135?)
- Ford Racing Lowering Springs: $209.99
- Front Sway bar: Gotta find one, Brenspeed doesn't carry a front sway bar(?)
- Hurst Comp+ Shifter: $189.99
- BMR Panhard Bar: $99 (Worth it to go for the Adjustable one for $135?)
- Ford Racing Lowering Springs: $209.99

Do you go to UTA?
I think I've seen you around Southlake town square and Harkins before. Do you remember driving side by side with another GT and like four or five Southlake cops jump onto Southlake blvd. shadowing to make sure no one raced?
I drive around some of the old parts of Keller, etc.
EDIT: ehh, I can barely keep my tires on the ground already. I couldn't imagine running with gears on top of it. :P

2) get adjustable, that is the only reason to get one is for adjustability really.
3) FRPP Springs are great (http://www.capaldiracing.com/isell3/...78c87aa6dc90c2) That makes then even better
4) wouldnt even bother really unless you are going on a road course, hell i dont even have one!

Guess I'll look into the springs and the adjustable panhard bar for suspension. I want to break into 12's this summer. >
How hard is everything to install anyways? I'd imagine the panhard bar just bolts in, but I have never thought about lowering springs and a Hurst.
@ Brwn: I think it was over Spring break around midnight. I was driving side by side with a Blue S197 GT, and cops just kept pulling out onto Southlake blvd. hahaha

What are some good front sway bars? $160+ $20 shipping is the cheapest I can find for that.

LCA a waste??
I guess the moral is, it's all opinion. The thing to keep in mind with suspension mods are what I consider acceptable NVH, you may think it's way too much. Or what I think is a tight and firm suspension you will think of as kidney crushing.
