On a differant post, you asked what suspension mod to get in the 12s. I felt that this deserves it's own post. Here are my recomendations, I think that many others will add in, which is what we are all here for.

1. cheap...Springs, 4cyl all the way around, with a set of air bags in the rears. 90/10s in front, stock are fine in back. sub frames, you allready have. Weld the torque boxes, Change all rear bushings and coil isolators to the polys, while changing bushings have all 4 control arms "BOXED", Skinnys up front, remove all weight from the car.

2. expensive...coil overs, k-member, A-arms, steering rack, 90/10s, rear control arms, 50/50s, drag springs for rear,if auto SSM lift bars

3. The most important part, GOOD TIRES

Ok who's next
