I was thinking since I had front coil over, I should go with a rear kit. I haven't been able to find much information on them on sn95. Should I go with a rear coil over kit, or with a regular setup?

Yeahloh95 has a rear coil-over setup on his car, you may want to talk with him about his setup.

I have run a D&D rear coil-over set-up, coupled with lakewood drag shocks. I ended up taking them off and saving them for my notchback, so I don't have any input on how they performed at the track. As far as whether or not you should install one of these kits, I would say it depends on what you are using the car for. If you want an all-around car, then I would say stay with a factory style set-up and progressive rate springs. Otherwise, pick your coil-over spring rating and go with it. It is a pain to change springs out regularly!

I have a rear coilover set-up from Mark Luton @ Modular Mustang Racing. Uses Comp Eng 3way shocks, and I have 10" 150lb springs. Bolts right in, and I also use a shock tower bracer from Kenny Brown to help take some of the load off the shock studs.

I think it was around $215ish for the kit. You will need to use Lakewood 50/50 shocks, but they will be specified for 93-down but they are the same.
