Im trying to decide on front/rear susp components. I've gotten a good look at other vehicles as far as stance, but need some opinions on options. I'm looking at the Hotchkis 2" Ft springs and Edelbrock shocks or one of the CoilOver kits from QA1. The price on the springs/shocks is 340 roughly or 399 for the economy coilover kit or 531 for the adjustable coilover kit (both from QA1). Is is worth is going to coilovers for my style of use? I'm using stock control arms for now and not sure if I'm going to upgrade or not. Any and all opinions are welcome.
sounds like a cool car. I'm sure everyone has an opinion on shocks, I've used QA1's and they are good. For the money I would round out the suspension with Hotchkis springs up front and Bilstien (sp?) shocks all the way around. VERY good quality and it will really perform well. Consider doing a Gulstrand mod up front- Chris
