All excellent advice and I concur - decide what the goals and budget are and start there. You've started by asking the right questions for sure and I have been through the same process as have others. And I cannot help but watch Mary blast that 2nd gen of hers around the track with a stock sub and Hotchkis kit! Impressive and as someone here suggested, a lot of it is the driver. Not to hijack this great thread but in the spirit of helping another member....I see you are just north of me (I'm in San Diego) so IF you decide to go with modified stock, I have some unused first gen suspension that I'm probably not going to use. PM me if interested.

I have a really clean, welded and fresh powdercoated stock sub, some Del-a-lum bushed, powdercoated UCA & LCA's with QA1 coilovers, Hotchkis front bar and a set of Landrum rear springs and bushings. I also have a complete, brand new, soup-to-nuts Hotchkis TVR setup for a first gen including the UCA's, LCA's, 4 lowered springs, 2 sway bars and their Bilstein shocks for front and rear plus all the bushings, brackets and hardware. I think there's even a late model, rebuilt steering box here somewhere. These were going on other projects that I'm not going to get to anytime soon so I'm sure we could work something out if you decide to go that route. I don't think Frank will mind because I buy all my stuff from him anyway!

But again, check on your goals and make a plan. It will change anyway but start with a plan LOL!
