Default QUICK Suggestions on Suspension work

I plan on doing my suspension soon and theres so many companies to choose from. So far ive been looking at BMR, G2, SLP, and hotchkis. I plan on doin SFC's, LCA's, STB, lowering springs, Adj. Torque Arm, and a sway bar. i plan on making my car an 11 sec daily driver and i wanted to know what company i should go with and what else would i need or what dont i need, thanks in advance.

I would go with BMR! They're usually a little bit cheaper and the quality is as good as any.

Add relocation brackets for your LCA's, looks like my list,I'll probably go with BMR stuff the quality is good and the parts always get to the door within a week, there website says springs are coming end of February? If not I'm looking at either G-2 Springs or Eilbach Pro- Kit.

I have the Eibach Pro kit and a friend of mine has the G2 springs. Doesn't seem to be any difference.

Maybe not in appearance, but there is a significant difference in spring rate.

Moving from the Pros to G2 springs kept my rear from bottoming out.

As far as a suspension package goes, if you don't have any experience tuning a suspension, I suggest you go with a package offered by a vendor who has a race engineered, designed and proven design.

www.lgmotorsports.com or www.stranoparts.com are 2 of the best vendors that offer those packages.
