My friend has an evo and ive been in it... i thought my stang handled pretty well but damn those cars just grip GRIP GRIP! I dont really know much about handling but I suspect bigger tires and maybe a roll cage or something.... i hope that helped

I don't have any suspension upgrades yet. All I did is wider rims and tires and the last autocross I did was pretty good. The # 1 mod to autocrossing is you(the driver). First master the car and then do some mods and then practice to get used to the mods....This is what an autocrossing instructor told me.

I work for a Subaru dealer (parts dept) and drive a 00 GT we are very heavy into the SCCA I won't say that it can't be done but it will be very $$$$$$ you have to make sure to get a list of the guide line for the division you are going to enter some require you to have factory setup some allow enginge mods only. We run in the SM class (street mod) 04 WRX pushing about 480 awhp (all whee horse power). To be competitive in our class you would have to spend about 25k. Be smart, start slow maybe buy some stiffer springs better struts cross member braces, run it like that get to know the car to where you are able to out drive the car then and only then make more upgrades. If you have any further questions e-mail me

yea defenitely look around because drag guidelines are nil compared to autocross league guidlines. they can be extremely specific with mostly what you CANT do....read up on the class u wanna enter before you waste money and time

If you want to autoX your mustang effectivly, the first thing you need is some racing rubber. Get some cheap rims, and mount some race only 'stickies' on there. That is the first step. Also, to be truly competitive, you will need a brake upgrade. This isn't cheap, but is a necessity if you want to hang with Evo's and Elises. You should do subframe connectors as a first suspension mod, and then go into the suspension more heavily. Lowering springs are a must. Get progressive rate springs. Castor/camber plates will help you, and combined with sway bars, the car will 'roll' a lot less. Forget a strut tower brace, won't do too much for ya. You do those things, and it will come down to the driver.

it's gonna take a lot. those evos do grip around corners like you wouldn't believe.. while flooring it

Thats cuz they have no torque.....



Anyway, get sub frame connectors, panhard rod, tubular k member, tubular a-arms, coil-overs (koni), caster/camber plates, strut tower brace, G-load brace (for the rear), adjustable rear upper and lower control arms, and 8-point cage (if not 10 pt.). With that setup you should be able to adjust the hell loutta your car in every which way you want. You can raise it, lower it, set the camber up to 3 degrees negative. All I can thin kof for now.

I heard that Griggs Racing has good suspension kits.. I have never tried them out but that's just what I have heard.

no its cause they handle like go carts.

I have seen evos on THREE wheels at full throttle hang a corner just fine.
