Rear suspension

Want to hook better at the track. I don't care about turning or ride comfort. What parts, brands, etc do you guys suggest. I know I'll need upper and lower control arms. What about shocks, braces, etc? Thanks guys

Already got tires in mind? BMR relocation brackets would be helpful as well.

This question is really going to depend on your budget and what you already have on the car. I will assume you have no other components on the car at this time.

You could definitely improve your numbers with the following items from Steeda Autosports:

UCA/LCA
Adjustable Panhard Bar
Shocks/Struts

Down the road you can add the following:

Springs
Sway Bars
HD Struts

You could definitely save by doing most of this stuff at the same time. For example, labor would be cheaper if you did springs and shocks/struts at the same time.

We have a shop in Pompano so if you would like me to get the boys at the shop to write up a quote for parts and labor then I can help provide that.

Let me know your thoughts..

Here is a good video that was done with upgrading a 2011 suspension.

Well the budget isn't really an issue, I'm not in a rush I'm just trying to get a plan going. As far as what I already have done, I have ***** thumpr cams, CAI, axel backs, and a Bama 93 race tune. In the nearer future I want to get long tubes with an offroad h pipe and a dyno tune with some other minor bolt ons. Right now I'm on nitto nt555s but once I save some money for my 15s I'll be running drag radials.
