better handling suspension





Literally anything is better than the stock stamped steel trailing arms. Solid trailing arms are always better.

You dont have to shell out tons of money on those. I'm sure dorman makes some quality ones.
 


because the car understeers a lot, you have to find a way to get the car to feel more neutral in corners. this will give the illusion that it's actually handling well. it never really will unless you go insane with body bracing and things of the like, but yeah.

here's how i would do it: tubular trailing arms, biggest rear sway bar you can find ($$$), a solid front sway bar (same size as stock), strut braces for giggles, and then some coilovers (spring rates and damping rates set accordingly, NOT straight off the shelf units).

you've also gotta remember tires come into play here a lot. tires almost trump everything else.
 


i found the rear sway to be a waste.

Front sway took out a lot of body roll. Rear sway didn't do much at that point.

And thats with vogltands/bilsteins.
 
I'm real happy with my suspension, the rear has come out a few times lol

Eibachs with Konis (about to be coilovers up front), UMI trailing arms, ZZP braces, GMPP sway bars, stock control arms. Its not a racecar but it sure is much better than stock.
