hello guys,

i'm not much of the suspension guy i mainly am involved with motors but i built a 335hp 305 and thinking i need a suspension upgrade. i been told you should upgrade the suspension if you have alot more hp then stock

but anyways i don't want my car lowered. around here the roads are crap and i bottom out like crazy everywhere. but anyways i would like new shocks and springs for my car. waht is a good set? kinda cheap sets.. not real cheap but not expensive. like i said my car went from 170hp to 330hp.. so i have no idea what suspension i would use. thanks for the help.

Here is a list of some mods I want to do...Prices should be close, and the Eibach pro-kit will lower your car about 1in. If you don't want a drop then just get stock replacement springs...

 

If your springs are old your car is probably already lowered. I wish i could remember high high its supposed to be but when my springs were 10 years old it was 1 inch lower than stock. So going with stock springs might actually raise your car. If you call up any suspension shop they should have the book that will tell them how high your car should ride.

 

oh well my car is reallll low for some reason but i gues slike you said they are worn. i had a friend with the ws6 suspension and i had an 84 without them and there was a huuuge difference in handling, my new 89 has ws6 but not as good as my friends.

where can you get the stock ws6 suspension for my trans am?
