Finally after so many other projects got in the way i can finally start the suspension build on my 93GT.

Parts going in:

MM K-member
MM foward offset control arms
MM STB
MM HD rear torque arm
MM HD Panhard bar
MM Road race rear control arms
MM Coilovers with Bilstein sport shocks (400fr/300rr IIRC)
Flexalite 52185 Radiator/fan combo
FMS silicon hose kit
K-Dezines rear seat delete kit

Taylor Battery box to the rear


Parts already on the car:

MM FL SFC
00R Brembo front brakes
SN95 Cobra rear brakes
Detroit Trutrac rear diff with 3.55 FMS gears and T/A Cover
R58 95R 17x9 wheels
Recaro SRD seats
Momo Monte Carlo steering with Sparco quick release hub
Pro-5.0 shifter base with Steeda Comfort Grip handle

Alot of other small odds and ends that have been put on the car over the years that i'll add to this main list as i remember them

For the past 4 years or so i've had the car on Bilstein HD shocks/struts with H&R Race springs and MM rear control arms (FMS uppers) and it was a fun driver... I even swapped in a set of Derlin bushings in the front control arms that a member from a different forum sold me and that seemed to work too)

Currently i'll be reviewing how the car handles with without a rear sway bar (as per MM's suggestion) and going from there. It will currently wear the stock 93gt front sway bar but i'll be looking around for a 4cyl bar to swap on and off.

Please feel free to review my setup and im always looking for suggestions and tips.

More pics to follow but here is a teaser for now

Thanks guys! Its coming along nicely... Now its time to slice and dice my front fenders :D

Last week i scored some engine parts for CHEAP... 24lb injectors with a matching MAF, 65mm TB with EGR plate and a K&N Filter... i plan on starting a fresh 302 build with the GT40X heads and GT40 Intake i've had laying around for 3 years... Contacted Anderson Motorsport and since i have 1.6 Roller Rockers we'll be going with the N41 Cam... Now i just need to find a shop to build me a short block (im thinking about going with the Boss 302 block as a base..).
