Re: Sticky Suspension Thread
So for those of us that are new to building a car....
I want to start building my Mach1 with the end result in mind, not do a little, and want more later. Just want to build it for around 650RWHP and start from the beginning. That being said what kind of suspension mods are recommended for a built rear end, and front. I want to keep the car a 5 speed, and don't intend on competing on the track for all intensive purposes. Not saying that I won't take it there, but not going to on a regular basis. If someone could make up a detailed list of parts for a built rear end I would really appreciate it. I have done some looking around and know that you need 31 spline axles, but alot of what I read is greek to me as well. Also if anyone is from Iowa or knows a good shop in Iowa to do some of the work at I would appreciate a recommendation.

Re: Sticky Suspension Thread
Never noticed this thread. In the pic I have:
Eibach Pro Kit No ISOs up front Top ISO only in the back KYB Adj shocks in the back Stock Struts MM CC plates Jegs Upper and Lower Control Arms MM FLSFC Since tire profile has a big effect on suspension appearance I'm running (245 45 17 and 275 40 17)

Wrong section bro. Post this up in the engine and drivetrain section. I'd answer your question here, but since its a sticky we should keep it on topic

I'm new to suspension, so I might have some dumb question. But my goal is to have a great handling car, and I know coilovers will be the way to get there. I'd prefer not to have to get the whole kit, meaning the rear, cus on the mm site the whole kit is over 1k I believe. Edit: Think I may have posted this in the wrong section. Appologies if I did.

Nice! This is the exact drop I'm looking for. SVE springs are still for sale on LMR, but they say "new improved". Wonder what's different? IG: @azurebluemach
