Supension Setup Advice

whats your question?

When it comes to suspension brands,ideas,and opinions you're going to get differing thoughts. My opinion/advise is go with the best components you can afford. Maximum Motorsports is a go-to and has great products. UPR is a good option also. I would stay away from mass produced/cheap stuff from BBK and ford Motorsports(or whatever name they're going by these days). Team Z Motorsports has great products also.

The couple areas that you should have already done if you haven't do right away are frame connectors and the rear torque box reinforcements(battle boxes that Mike mentioned). Any good rear suspension setup with sticky tires at the track will crack/rip the area where the rear controll arms are connected to the car(torque boxes).

The setup that I'm using(and some parts that I haven't installed yet) is as follows:maximum Motorsports frame connectors,cc plates,and rear lower controll arms(which are being swapped out to team z upper and lowers-the mm lca are quality pieces though),rear box reinforcements,team z rear drag springs, mm front 150# coilovers with 10way adj strange struts and rear shocks. This setup has been really nice on the street and at present I haven't gotten to the track yet(next spring - hopefully)

Also DO NOT swap out the intake to the tfs unit. The Holley intake flows way better and if you need more have it ported(unless you're going to a tfs r). You also will need bigger injectors and I recommend getting rid of the msd distributor(known to be junk and failure). A stock ignition is more than adequate for 500 hp and 65-7k rpm without a problem. What are your motor plans? Stock block? If so they have a tendancy to crack/fail around the 500hp mark and/or repeated 6500rpms. With a stroker crank and nitrous this is going to be pushing it. Will it work? Yes but for how long? And high end forged internals won't matter(they won't fail but the block will and more than likely take out any good parts with it).

Antirollbar. Double adjustable uppers. At least single adjustable lowers. Stock springs. At least single adjustable shocks and struts. Tubular k member, a arms and coil overs. Get it scaled. Try and get each corner as close to possible to the other side, I like to put 20 lbs more on the right rear.
