if you currently have a v6, no cobra owner is going to trade your 2.73 geared 7.5'' open differential SRA. they would want an 8.8 from a GT

ReplicaR said:You know, I've been road racing my mustang for slightly over 2 years now, and I have NEVER EVER have had this "nasty snap oversteer" that you speak of. I've ran the car stock, and on various different springs, and still no bind. Maybe because I did not overslam my car like most people do. My car also does not have any problems with rear traction over bumps either. I've ran Buttonwillow a few times, which is a bumpy track, and still had no issues, so unless you are racing over speed bumps, you'll be just fine, just like everyone else in Camaro Mustang Challenge and American Iron. The only time my car ever oversteers on me, is when the tires are cold, or my throttle input is rough.

k. That makes sense. How soft a spring can you spec on a coilover kit? 650#s is really stiff, eh?Goindeafonmtx said:Depends on spring rate. With coilovers, you can adjust ride height regardless of spring rate. So comfort is in the spring rate. I run a 650lb spring in the rear on my IRS, so I don't really notice a difference in ride quality. But when comparing a stock sprung IRS to a solid axle car, the IRS is far superior in ride quality.
Thats the truth, The more you got the better you will be.ReplicaR said:The best suspension mod is seat time, and that's the honest truth.
