Re: Suspension wish list

When I rebuilt my suspension a few years back, I decided to go back to the stock spring rates and adjustable shocks/struts. The steeda sport springs were the ticket, with the illumina struts/shocks. I replaced the outer tie rods, the lower control arms (loaded) and the rear upper and lower arms.
final touch was the eibach sway bars.

I don't race the car it is 100% street and honestly I like the ride, and the handling. On our rougher roads it is a little stiff, but not like a Saleen of our era would be. The sway bars allowed me to loosen up the front struts a bit more, taking them back from 4-3.
if the car were a track-day car, drag-car etc, I would more than likely go a bit more radical...but...I have complete confidence in the set up. the car goes where I point it, has excellent balance, and the feedback is great.
