steeda stage 1,2 and 3!

Roughly $1800, I'll be sure to post a review when I get them in. I just hope I didn't overkill for suspension mods for a 2.3L. In the meantime, I'm having problems with the 2nd coilpack, the first one died six months ago. I should have done both of them when I had a chance. Now it's stranded an hour away at a shop. They're trying to tell me it's an idle sensor but it's showing the exact same symptoms as it did when the first coil pack died. $275 for the sensor with tax and labor.

Hope you enjoy the new suspension. So what all does that roush pack have in it? Beware, that the springs are probably designed for a V8, so your 2.3 might sit a bit high in the front.

Hey, might as well put money in the suspension, since there isn't much you can do with the engine.

indeed

I'm doing my car in phases. Suspension now in preperation for engine stuff later. You have to have a good foundation in order to utilize your powertrain to its full potential. Belive me, I'm going turbo. I also seriously need the suspension NOW because my car has over 250,000 miles with all original undercarriage and my tires rub. Also, I have a severe squeeking sound in my front end when I go over the slightest dips and bumps and when I turn the wheel. I also have 17X8 454 wheels with P235's. I think I need lower profiles to help with rubbing.

Squeaking like that is often a sign of a dying ball joint (or at least it was on my '90).

Although, on my Thunderbird...I've got some weird squeaking/clunking sounds from the front, despite replacing the tie rods and lower control arms & ball joints.
