I got a 91 RS with the optional Z28 suspension package....

anyways, although the car stock handles and corners great, I just want to know of some ways to even better its cornering and handling...

I often lose traction in the back if I am going to fast in a turn, I want the car to really hold the road down when I am cornering...

Any idea, suggestions tips? I was thinking a strut bar, but am not sure if thats enough

Shocks and springs
Subframe connectors
Strut Tower Brace
Wonder Bar
Roll Cage
adj panhard bar
panhard re location brackets
adj lower contol arms
adj torque arm
traction action bars (Lakewood)
Tubular A Arms

Drop Sprindles
adj tie rod ends

Thats about all the syspension your car will need. After that its a true IROC (International Race of Champions). Solid as hell.

ps..after you have done this your car could handle some serious horse. I Have an edelbrock stb, a TDS wonder bar and am currently orginizing a GP for UMI subframe connectprs. After that Im working my way down the list. I have done alot of research and reading these threads to know what i want now i just dont have enough money to buy it all at once

Do yourself a favor - start with good struts, shocks and tires. Get adjustables like Konis or Illuminas. The Bilsteins are also great but non-adjustable. Get at least $150 tires, all the $100 tires I've tried are not good enough. If I just went with these simple basics I probably wouldn't need all the other stuff.
