2003 Mach 1 susp. and brake questions
Hi all, Im lookin to beef up the suspension for more handling than anything, of course the car will run the 1/4 but that is not my main concern. More than likely it will see a road course more often. I will be buying weld in subframes when i do this. Also I want to upgrade my brakes (both front and back) but I cannot find kits with both the front and the back. Im looking to go bigger than stock.
Thanks for the help Edit= I have H&R SS springs but the ride quality blows.

if your looking at coil overs those are great! if your not looking at going coil overs id say keep the H&R's and get a set of tokico D spec adjustables. they are great and can be adjusted for any kind of conditions. and ofcourse all of the other typical suspension mods. maximum motorsports stuff is great and ive had great experience with a lot of it. as for breaks if i were you id get the 2000 cobra R brembo front kit and call it done. the 4 piston calipers and slotted rotors will provide MUCH better breaking than stock and are great for the road course

There is really no reason for bigger brakes. What comes stock is fine. However, if you insist on bigger brakes, the most cost effective route, would be gt500 brakes.

The struts and shocks that come in the kit, will replace your current struts and shocks. So yes, the kit you have linked....will replace everything you currently have as far as Springs/Shocks/Struts/Cast Camber Plates.

Anything from MM is quality and would perform well but don't cheap out and not get your car set up right.
