Default Maximum Motorsports Suspension Question.

I have a 1991 Mustang lx hatchback and thinking of adding the following. my question is, will this really improve the handling of this car, can it compete with the better cars out there. The reason is investment, is it worth the money to modify this car. i have a 300 zx turbo , can it be close to that?

Eibach sporline springs - installed
caster camber plates - installed
bilstein shocks strunts heavy duty - should i ?
Maximum strunt tower bar , full lenght subframe, 4 point k member, = bought and not installed yet.

add all these pieces will the car perform? are lower control arms or sway bars worth the money?



please let me know..thank you.

Default RE: Maximum Motorsports Suspension Question.

You should really focus your spending on the rear suspension. The k-member moves the engine an inch to the rear to help the balance of teh car. and it takes weight off the front versus the stamped steal pieces. Go with the torque arm and the two lower control arms and a panhard bar or watts link. Check out Griggs Racing. They are there competator. I have heard great things about griggs. Im getting there gr-40 suspension kit for my mustang. they also have a kit to put upper and lower control arms on your front suspension. And griggs says there three link rear suspension increase's traction 150% over stock. thats what you really need. traction. check them out..... www.griggsracing.com read the facts they got on it to understand.
