H & R Springs have the BEST history of springs in racing, Indy 500 wins for decades, 24 hours of Le Mans, and to me, drag racing is like premature ijaculation, even if you mess up it is over in less than 30 seconds
damn what a great analogy

I'm gonna have to side w/ twister about H&R springs. They exceed even the most stringent German regulations and laws.

Ikey--I don't think there's anything wrong w/ Eibach, just not what I wan to put on my car. As for the 2" drop, the H&R super sports come pretty close. If you go to MM's website, it gives you the drop for all the H&R springs w/ poly spring isolators installed (which offset the drop a little). Most companies don't add in the height w/ new spring isolators, so they seem to drop more......

fiveliter--jdsperformance.com has a set of U/L granatelli's for $159. If you just want a set for a daily driver and maybe occasional track use, then those will work fine. If you'll spend more time at the track or road racing, you should invest in some adjustables.

Why doesnt anyone ever mention D&D Motorsports for control arms? I am working on a full suspension from them now and I have always heard good things about them.
