After the car is tuned I am going to do a few more things before I finish up the suspension.

The rear suspension has been built up using:

HPM Megabite Jr. Lowers
HPM Severe Duty Panhard Bar

The front suspension has been built up using:

Steeda X2 Ball Joints
Steeda Bump Steer Kit
Steeda Tubular Front Swaybar
MM 4-pt G-Load Brace
Tokico 5-way Adjustable Shocks & Struts
Eibach Pro Kit
All Polyeurathane bushings

Here is what I am going to be adding after the tune:

H&R Super Race Springs
MM Caster / Camber Plates
MM Front Control Arm Bushings
MM Steering Shaft Upgrade

Here is a couple of pictures of how the car sits now:





Here is the tech portion of it:

With my Pro-Kit right now I sit with about a 2.6" drop in the front and about a 1.75 in the rear vs a stock car. I have always had reject pro-kit springs that has sat lower then any other '96-'98 that I have seen. What is the actual drop from a true pro-kit should give? The specs on the H&R Super Race Springs are a 1 1/4 all the way around but a lot stiffer than most springs out there. I want to keep close to the same drop that I have now but with stiffer springs. I can't afford to go lower because I already hit $hit now. I really need advice on this! Let me know your thoughts

sorry, I can't give much advice on the springs, but I don't believe I saw you had upper control arms in there, I would do that. and a 2.6 inch drop in front!? wow, never even heard of that. everything else looks good, car looks GREAT, good luck!

With the panhard that I am running I don't need upper control arms.
