Poll: What should I do next?! I'm having trouble deciding what suspension mod I want to do next to my 85 TA... Poly bushings or subframe connectors?
Right now, all I have is a set of Eibach Sportline springs.
Many might automatically say the SFCs but plz keep in mind my TA is 23 yrs old and the rubber bushings suck! Opinions welcome!

Subframe connectors should have been put on F-bodies from the factory. Their chassis is pathetically weak in stock form.
That being said, this should be everyone's first mod for suspension. SFC's are going to tighten the whole car up, make it track straight, and keep away rattles (that aren't already there). Poly bushings are a marginal gain at BEST compared to SFC's.
No question about it, SFC's.

Id have to go with Springs! Sportlines are not performance oriented springs, they are more for people that want a really low drop. I had ProKit springs on my old 90 RS and they performed well, not sure if they are the best 3rd gen springs out there but I would do some research on thirdgen.org. Also, subframes made a huge difference on my old thirdgen but I would go with bushings first if you plan on keeping stock suspension pieces.
