Couple of Q's:

1. Would they be a good next mod given my current setup (price and performance considered)?

2. Are they easy to install (and are there any links for instructions)?

3. Any Rec's on decent brands for the price paid.?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
RC

I run the maximum motorsport ones too. I believe they were like $230. Nice quality pieces. I did them without instructions, they're easy just bit irritating.

Thanks for the instructions. $230 seems like a lot though for something that some people have said "doesnt make a whole lot of difference."

I just bough me a set of these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7974092040&category=33583

They usually go for 159 on ebay they have a few sets on sale. I looked on Granatelli's site and they really do go for $410. I was gonna wait and do the rear suspension later but beings i got everything off now I said **** it and figured I might as well its right ere and it should be easy with everything off the car

lol I can't get under my car to adjust anything if i wanted to so just normal ones are good enough for me as long as it helps the ride. After all this work im doing to this thing better feel like i'm driving a cloud

The adjustables are so you can properly set your pinion angle to alleviate traction problems.

I went with UPR pro series adjustable uppers and there pro street non-adjustable lowers. For street use adjustable lowers are a waste of time but being able to set your pinion angle back -2 ,-3 is what you want. UPR is very reasonable priced as well. I reccommend these to everyone. I switched out these from the X2C ones I had. My $.02 If you can afford them and dont mind the looks HPM megabites are top of the line.

Mike,
Even though I bust your hump about TB's, I trust pretty much everything you say. Are you saying that b/c you dont think it will be worth the $$$?

I dont want a mod just to say I have the mod (like a Steeda sticker ) I "do" however have my tires spinning like crazy, so I thought they might help.

Thanks
RC

PS..>Thanks for the link to the auction!

Heres my opinion Rob. Put a drag radial on it and you should stop spinning like you say you do now. I think the fact that you live in south florida the roads are gonna be hotter and combined with a sticky tire, you should start hooking. My car is a night and day difference on a drag radial in the summer vs the winter. I have MM lower control arms along with Rick 91GT's torque box reinforcement kit. The control arms didn't really do sh it for me and were a complete pain in the balls to install. My best ever 60' was on stock arms. I'd put that money towards a tire if your looking to hook.
