Setup

[firebirdv6 3.4]

Just wanted to get yalls opinion on my suspension setup I will be buying soon.
It consist of:
1. Hotchkis 1-Inch Drop Performance Coil Spring Set
2. HOTCHKIS Front & Rear Performance Sway Bar Set
3. HOTCHKIS Powdercoated Rear Suspension Package
4. ADDCO Control Arm Relocation Brackets, Bolt-On
5. Bilstein shocks
6. HOTCHKIS Powdercoat Strut Tower Brace
7. Hotchkis Sub Frame Connectors

I plan on autocrossing and drag racing. This should be good for what I want, right?

I currently have a 93 Firebird 3.4 V6. Ive added Eibach springs with a 1" drop, BMR front/rear sway bars, BMR lower control arms, BMR transmission tunnel brace, BMR panhard bar, BMR shocktower brace, BMR subframe connectors, and Bilstein shocks.....I gotta say, it all certainly stiffens up the car. As someone else on the board once said about their car "it handles like a cat on carpet". Its not as bone jarring stiff as what I thought it would be...now it could be my imagination, it could be the fact that Ive used polyurethane bushings on everything...but there does seem to be more squeeks and rattles now. Hell, I can live with that though now that it handles so much better. I'd think a little bit of a wider tire would also be a plus.

No.

Autocrossing and drag racing are different suspensions. Compromise, and you s*ck at both. Pick one.
