suspension checklist

[97stanger]

hey guys, just wanted to run my suspension list that i plan on doing by you guys for some input. I currently have eibach pro kit, kyb agx 8 way adjustable gas shocks/struts. My goals for the car when im done are 450-500rwhp. Here is what I plan to do:

MM strut tower brace
MM caster camber plates
steeda aluminum non adjustable lower/upper control arms
MM full length subframe connectors
NItto 555R radials out back

How does that look, anything im missing that you think would be vital? thanks guys

[97stanger]

the MM panhard looks nice, what does it do? and what the heck are matrix braces?

 

[scarface]

matrix are like UBER subframes from what I understand.

 

[97stanger]

oh okay, so basically just an extreme subframe connector system. what does a panhard bar do?

 

[scarface]

controls body roll I believe. Dalamar can tell you better, he has one.

i was told that the panhard bar only works well if you eliminate upper control arms and go to a torque arm?? true? if this is the case i really dont want to get involved all of this, im just trying to make this car into a street/fun car and think some aftermarket upper/lower control arms will do the trick.

A panhard bar locates the rear end side to side, something the stock arm arangement does not do as well as it it could.

On a fun street car, you don't need one, I've never missed not having one myself.
