Suspension Help

Hey guys. I'm looking to lower my car. 2006 GT. I'm completely stumped as what system to get.

I want it to be noticeably lower and I want it to handle better. I'm interested in Eibach's Sport Sytem Plus.

I want more than springs but not a complete track ready kit. (too much$$$) However I've heard bad reviews of Eibach's springs and struts.

What do most of you lowered guys use. I know I will have to get CC plates and an adjustable panhard bar.

Should I go coil over? If I go coil over I can't really afford swaybars at the same time.

So what should I look at to get lower and handle better.

What are your goals? Do you race the car?

Whatever you choose do springs/dampers and possible camber plates at the same time. You can add the sway bars, pan hard bar, etc... later without having to undo what you already did.

Sorry forgot to post my intentions. It'll be 95% street car. Might see the Twistes once or twice a year same with the strip. I have no intentions on being competitive with it.

Then just get some decent springs and shocks. If you aren't racing the car, those other upgrades will never be utilized.

Adjustable dampers allow for a variety of purposes.

Sounds good and saves me some $$ any recommendations?

I have the Koni Sport adjustable shocks/struts (Koni Yellows) paired with Steeda Sport springs and steed hd strut mounts and am very happy with the set up. The adjustability is really nice to have. The ride is noticeably firmer than stock but not harsh unless your roads suck.

I would give Sam Strano a call.

Should also take into consideration what size wheels you'll be running. Big difference in handling between 18s & 20's
