BMR or Spohn? I am about ready to start ordering parts for my suspension. I'm oging to change pretty much everything. Shock tower brace, subframe connectors, Control arms, panhard rod, torque arm, tunnel brace, shocks, everything. Who would be the best to go with, BMR or Spohn. I've seen that Spohn is a little cheaper on their prices. Who has the best quality????

I don't believe the shock tower brace adds a whole lot to 4th gen f-bodies--they're already pretty rigid up front. You can confirm this with the road racers here, but the unibody only really needs help from the firewall back to the rear axle.
You might want to save yourself a little $$ there. If there's one place in these cars you don't want to add weight, it's especially out front.

I have both brands in my car. After doing some homework on this subject I have determined that as long as you go with a good reputable company (BMR, Spohn, Billingsley, etc) they are all pretty comparable and it really just comes down to a matter of price. They are all good quality and fitment and I think you will find the majority of people reccomend what they have which tells you one thing....they are all pretty good.

I've used both and quality was comparable. My current ride has all spohn equipment as they came through with complete custom pieces per my specs and even after the original order was wrong (my fault) I sent them back and they got out the custom pieces needed 2 day air'd.
