I picked up a 91GT last month it is my first fox body out of like 55 cars. WhatI am looking to do is make it handle. I just bought the M&M road and track grip in a box. Also I added the torque arm kit and 96 motor sport A-arms. I am using the Maier racing full lengh subs and tower brace. Also I ordered a 5lug coversions kit so I can run a set of 94Ponys I picked up w/245/45/16 and 225/55/16. So what would the next step be?

As Cosmo mentioned, drive it. Actually drive the hell out of it!

Since you have already begun to mod it, finish up the installs and take it to a few open track sessions. See how the car handles and if you like it, then go from there.

6 point cage or bigger brakes....

Whats the point in suspension when you cant brake for the next corner [Wink] ..I'm not sure what brakes you have, but if going with the bigger brakes is a problem cause of rim size then you should at least buy some Hawk pads for the brakes you have..

A 6 point will add even more stiffness and is required for some track events...Its also a great safty item...

Thanks for the replys. As far as bolt ons I have none so far. I just bought the car and the first thing I am doing is the suspention and a five lug convertion (all 96 brks and hardware). The 6pt cage is the next mod I will be building just need to clean the garage out from this tear down so I can start the cage. Then it will be exhaust, right now it is stock with flow welded in the stock tails. What are some of the local tracks to the sac. area and what kind of fee's are their to run. My buddy runs his 98 Lotus at thunder hill But I have never asked him much about it yet.
