well w. loose struts and no sway bar and skinnies, my car rolls like mo'fo' around corners... but thats the opposite of what i was goin for so i am ok w. that...

if i were to keep the sway bar, and if i tighten the struts... it handles like stock or a little better

i met a guy at our local track two weekends ago who can pop his wheels 4 inches in the air on one side about about 1-2 inches on the other side. his set-up:

motor/ stock
tires/ 255 MT radials
u/l control arms/ UPR solids
body/ sub frames and TQ boxes reinforced
spring and struts/shocks/ eibach sportline in rear, 4 cylinder spring up front, stange 10way all the way around
gears/ 3.55's
tranny/ TKO500
clutch/ centerforce
aluminum drive shaft
battery relocated


i think he hit a 12.8-13.0 maybe it was less, i know it was somethin crazy and ever since that day i wanted to use that set-up. just insane!

ORIGINAL: stangman94

but he has an sn95 dont you think it may be a little more weight on them? May be to much for an SN95 now if I had a fox I would do it.
Just about 100-250 pounds. I've seen them on a 04V8though.
