How much difference??


So this weekend I am getting busy and installing full length weld in SFC's, front and rear coilover kits and spherical bushing rear control arms, the uppers adjustable...I had some cheap tubular control arms already...how much difference will I feel in the car? Will it be a whole new ride? What can I expect?

Thanks!

I'll be stiffer. Going to feel bumps a little more depending on what you chose for spring rates. Seems less rattle-y in the car.

I was reccommended 12-250 up front and 10-150 in the back.

Think the ass-dyno will be able to tell a difference?

I still need spherical axle bushings. How good is this hookup?

Also to Uber, don't forget to set a base -2* pinion angle. Adjust from there at the track.
