^+1 or at least make sure all your front end bushings are in good shape.

adjustable suspension, soften the front wich will soak up and bumps from launching and stiffen the rear wich will prevent weight transfer and will keep the rear from squating.

cheapest way to stiffen the rear I'm assuming is to put an extra bump stop in?

How do you feel about sway bars? Needed? Not needed?

Miko would you say better than prothane? Sorry for the dumb q!:o

Both sway bars are off of my car at the moment. I need to work on the rear suspension a little, it has some cheapo lowering springs that the previous owner had installed. I'd actually like to put some stock springs back in the rear and add an extra bumpstop to stop all that weight transfer.

Anyone ever used a fixed rear suspension?? Wondering how the car would handle going down the track if the ass end was solid.

Decided to go totally solid on my mounts, no jwt, no prothanes, none of that. Just solid steel mounts, should have some pics when I get back from vacation, I'll post them up and see what you think.

well, as I promised...







Have yet to mess with the dogbone mount and the aluminum passenger mount, they both have prothanes but will eventually be totally solid as well.

It's not that bad when you have a kit like this. Drill a hole in the broken fastener and use one of the extractors. I used this on transmission bolts broken off flush in the transmission a few times.
