I am trying to find a good suspension and brakes for my 98gt any suggestions?

 

I just got the tokico HP shocks and struts. They feel absolutely great. They can handle a slight drop aswell. They were very budget friendly aswell. Check out latemodelrestoration.com and you can get them as a set. They also have great brake kits aswell.

 

thanks for the help

 

Do a cobra brake upgrade. Huge difference. Any spring and shock combo will make a big difference

 

ok i was thinking about the cobra brake upgrade but where could i find the four discs and calipers?

 

what would be better coil overs or normal struts

 

What's your goal for the car?

 

my goal is to lower the car to give it a more agresive look but also give it more handling , because its my daily driver

 

If its a street car then normal shocks and struts, if its track or auto x, coilovers would be good. You can only get a cobra brake kit from ebay used.. ford stoped producing them. there are several companys that make reproductions, one of them being "SVE" from lms.

ok so normal struts with lowering springs will work best, yea i was looking at the sve brake kit it looks prety good

 

Yeah, they are good for street use and lowering springs. I am also debating a big brake kit or just beefing up the stock... I am really considering the brembros from the stock cobra r.. http://www.americanmuscle.com/brembo...0-cobra-r.html a bit more expensive but they are really good.

 

yea me too but i was looking in latemodelrestoration and they sell the front an rear slotted brakes with pads for $359 to $380 but without calipers but i saw the sve the rear in $360 and the front in $350 but still y think ots cheaper to buy the brembo kit instead and i bet it will be better

 

I like the brembo because it has 4 piston instead of 2, it was used on the cobra r, wich was basicly a street legal race car. The cobras are supposed to make a world of difference over the stock. But i have also heard stock rotors, hawk hps pads, stainless steal braided lines and a more agressive brake fluid is "leaps and bounds better than stock". But with all that youre only 150 or so shy from the cobras...

 

the brembo will make a world of difference whe. comes to stopping did you search on ebay for the brembo kit?

 

No I didnt. I have never delt with ebay... so idk anything about it...

 

well let me check the kit on ebay

 

Let me know!

 

i found a used kit the two front discs and calipers whith brake lines for $480, how ever the brembo disc pair sel for $150 or les i dont remeber http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewi...id=02488039638

 

cobra brakes with brembo rotors?

 

yep those are cobra calipers with brembo rotors or if you want to buy the pair of brembo rotors alone there are aroun$150 or less per pair
