Suspension Packs


Ok... So over the winter I am looking into more mods for my car. I was looking at the Steeda suspension packs and I thought that they looked pretty good. Then I was reading on here and a lot of people said that the Maximum Motorsports were really good. All of the suspension packs on steeda (stages 1-4) are about 2800... Then I go onto the MM website and their grip box is 4500!!! What is the difference and is it really worth that much of a jump in price.? Are steeda products really that shitty.??

I don't have any experience with that stuff but I was just curious why you haven't added gears yet to that thing? And how much HP did you see from the LTs?

I got the Steeda G-Trac kit, stages 1-3 spent about $1800 on parts...did all the work with my father last christmas....HUGE improvement!! I'm still thinkin about getting the X-2 ball joints, and the bump steer kit....we'll see....

as far as the MM package that is $4500....it has a lot more parts, like A-arms, Kmember, panhard bar, coil overs...etc....its definately a beefier kit....over all I don't have much experiance with MM, but I'd definately recommend the Steeda Gtrac!! you'll love it....whole new car...1 year later, and 20,000 miles and it still feels and rides just the same!

+1 Steeda Gtrac

The MM box you were looking at was their full-on race package. They have several different kits, starting at under $1000 (IIRC), and going up to the one you were looking at.

And yes, it is worth the difference in price if you're interested in having a car that handles really really well.

Ya i was trying to compare everything between the two and it did seem like the mm was more extensive that the steeda.. O ya and i do have some 4.10s on my car it just not in my sig. And i dont know how much i gained from the lts.. I had all of that put on in one shot. And since then all that i have done was an accufab throttle body..
