Looking for recommendations for
1) lowering kits for 01 gt convt, coil over, etc. Looking to improve overall handling and correct bump steer. Considering Eibach Pro Kit, Maximum Starter Box, Griggs, Global West, others.
2) East Bay shop for installation and setup of same.
Thanks

Kyban

i would go with coil overs from www.griggsracing.com if you have the money to spend on it well worth it.

Whats your budget$.?..Do you ever want to road race or auto-cross?..
If you just want to "improve overall handling", I suggest some MM subframe conn. Bilteins, some lowering springs of your choice, lower control arms and some urethane sway bar bushings..Thats a nice starter pakage..

Otherwise MM's "The Starter Box", which has Springs, CC plates, and some Bilsteins for around $1,100, sounds good to me....
