Upper and lower control arms.... Drag Radials.... Subframe connectors.... Struts and shocks.... It depends on how much you want to spend, and which direction you are going with the car... Drag, Road Race, Etc....

Don't want to spend alot, looking for better Drag traction, but the car will still be a semi-daily driver.

Get some upper/lower control arms and a set of drag radials... Best money you can spend

Eibach has a new set of drag lauch springs that are either out or just about to come out. Also BMR is you one stop shop for drag everything for the 05 - 06 GT. Cheapest thing is radials, springs, anti roll bar, and front sway bar delete. BMR is the place to go for DRAG!!!

Eibach's drag springs have been out for years, but they have a tendancy to sag after a few months of use... They are pretty rough springs for a daily... I wouldn't do them unless I was going to race ALOT, and I was ok with not being able to take corners fast at all...
