I know that I haven't done a lot of suspension mods to my car, but I am trying to figure out what I should do next. So far I have steeda sport springs, bilstein sport shocks/struts, and steeda cc plates. I don't want my car to be very harsh on the street, but I want some pretty good handling. I also have a strut tower brace, but I have yet to put it on. For a street car, what would you guys reccomend that I put on next?

Full lebgth sub frame connectors. I reconmend MM.
Griggs and steeda make good ones also.

There are many products you can put to improve the suspension characteristics of your car. You will need to decide what you would like to do with the car before you move forward: mainly street, occasional open track, racing....
I, as well as other who post in this forum, recommend the following site, and as stated in other posts, make sure you use the search before asking intelligent questions or you will be torn a new one. Polyurethane bushings might be a good start.

Hope this helps....
more info than you need but still informative

Strut tower brace. trust me. You will really feel the difference in the hard turns.

And a whole lot more seat time. That will give you the biggest improvement.

Since I don't want to get flamed over there, what do they mean when they refer to cowl shake?

yea Maximum Motorsport has somewhat of a chassis package under $420 out the door for
*Full Length sub connectors
*K-mem
and a Strut Tower Brace-all powder coated...
ne of u think thats a good deal?
 
Posted by Blown Mystic (Member # 476) on :
 
sure, but the k-member is not a cheap install. also STB's are not that much of a performance enhancer. you could alway sell it though
 
Posted by 91sleeper (Member # 779) on :
 
I would but that pakage from MM but I do not want to install a K-Member, damn thats a lot of work.
