Well I think I have my motor pretty well sorted out and running fairly well so I'm going to move on to the next phase - Suspension and brakes.

Here is what I want out of the car: Awesome handling on twisty mountain roads with the very occasinal DE/AX.

This is what I have to start with: Stock suspension with drilled hubs running 16x6 5 lugs with 205-55 Kumho Ecsta 712's.

What I have procured so far: 1 23mm weltmeister adjustable front and stock rear sway bar and a set of 150 lb. springs.

Budget is $1500.00.

Okay everybody, start my shopping list. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)
