Compared to my Firebird (AME subframe plus G-Bar) I would say that it is less harsh (particlulary the rear suspension) but I am guessing the Firebird would outperform the GTO in an autocross for example. The AME subframe was outstanding, probably hard to beat with bolt on parts. I often thought the Varishocks were the weak link with my G-Bar but never got around to trying some Ridetech shocks before I sold it.

That said I am happy with the GTO suspension. It is better for the kind of driving I do on the roads we have here.
