Trying to get a more aggressive stance

[stonewall621]

I'm wondering if I could lower just the front of my 2000 GT to give it a little more of a ass kicking stance if anyone esle has done this, some pictures would be sweet.

Thats what H&R SuperSports are for. They lower the car and give it a nice raked stance like you're talking about.

the stance ur thinking of origniated from the muscle car days are from having a huge engine uner the hood, maybe a 351 windsor may help your stance Nah H&R's will help, tis what i'd have but i can't lower the front, my exhaust is too low

I have pics but they aren't really from the side straight on. The "stance" is more of a "rake". The SS lower your car but leave your rear end about 1/4" to 3/8" higher than the front. They look good as a modern muscle car stance but not like a '60s/'70s stance...

:SNSign: I'll pic whore any chance I get...

How are the H&R SS for drag racing?

From what I understand, the weight transfer isn't optimum. But H&R does make "Race" springs and there is a drop. Look at Maximum Motorsports. They'll explain it.

I was going to say get a larger motor. Some springs can change it though giving it a raked look. Maybe take out the spring isolators from the front?

Stock springs front and back

This is my 96 when I had Steeda Sports on the front and stock on the rear. May give you an idea of how it would look.

He has a 2000. For some reason they don't seem to rake like ealier models...

Fat ass comes to mind... :SNSign: j/k

pulling the spring isolators will give you a 1/4 to 1/2 inch. Probably the cheapest way to get a little bit of the raked look

 

[CRZYHRSGT]

This is with Eibach Pro springs (a whole bunch of other suspension stuff, but nothing else that would change the stance)...

 

[BennyBlown2v]

IMO Maximum Motorsports coilovers are the only way to go. Adjustability, ride quality, and handling are just a few of the perks. On the cheap I would reccomend Eibach Pro-Kit springs, or H&R Race springs - either one will drop your car 1" to 1-1/2", and not screw with your roll neight too much (in a negative way) or increase bumpsteer substantially.

Not exactly amazing, but they didn't prevent me from running 13.70's. The 2.1 60' was mainly due to the tires i think. I'l let you know after next weekend when i taker her out on the new BFG's

I like the wheel delete mod myself.

I think that's a decent rake. FRPP C springs. But the rear sits damn high
