Intrax is the way to go if you want your car to be really low. I think they drop the car 2" or so. Few guys on here with em will chime in soon. I have Eibach sportlines. I love the look. 1 3/4 drop in the front and 1 1/2 in the rear. There are also the Eibach Pro kits. 1" drop all around. It's personal preference but I'm just giving you a little list here. Hotchkis also has a nice spring...

Yeah thats what I did. I could have gone with Bilstein shocks but I mean, my car will "maybe" see a track once or twice it's whole life and be AutoX'd a few times so it will be a driver most of the time. Thats why I went with KYB GR-2 shocks and struts. I also have UMI lca's, lca brackets, Adj panhard bar, wonderbar and sfc's. What a difference.

Axle/Gears: posi, and posi w/discs :D.
i also need new springs and shocks. im getting the disc rear end off a 91 GTA, so ill probably snag the springs and shocks aswell. they gotta be better than my worn out 85's for the time being.
so is there a company out there that makes drop spindles? i think crazy has them, not sure.
