...Gents (and ladies,) I've researched my butt off trying to find, what makes a TR handle. I've been through the GW vs. Hotchkiss vs. Moog vs. Eichbachs...
I'm aware that tires make a huge difference. I'm aware that 16" or larger makes a difference, however, due to the wife wanting a semi-comfortable ride, I've acquired some Bilsteins, and am thinking of doing the usual Moog springs along with some GTA rims, bolstered by stock front swaybar and ST's larger rear for tractable issues. I'm thinking along the lines of pst's super front end rebuild and some tubular a-arms (ie. scandc.com, however, his are a wee bit for me to afford at the moment) and finishing it off with some rear adjustable uppers and tubular rear LCA's. My question is, how am I doing so far? Am I in the right direction for a decent handling G-body? Or am I doomed to failure and will have to resort to purchasing an EVO IX after college? I'd appreciate any real world feedback. I'm sure it will be beneficial not only to myself, but others as well.
P.S. I already did the rear/front braces!
Aloha!
