Suspension

i want my car to handle better then a corvette race car man, i want it to stick to the ground like glue, i wanna beable to go trought sharp curves at higher speeds with ease... i was at one time considering going with eibach springs with maybe bilstein shocks, but then im considering like air bags so i can raise the car up when i need it, i want to go with like a 1.8 or even a 2 inch drop all the way around, need to beable to get the car up for speed bumps and steap drive ways, would also be good for the winter incase it snows.

Im no even sure of all the peices i will need to upgrade / add on to the suspension, also dont know if air bags will be good for this type of suspesion.

i need some help and lots of feed back.

Re: Suspension

Well, first thing your going to want to do is fabricate in a Independent rear suspension cause for what your looking for a solid rear won't handle the way your looking for it to, Also your going to need to stiffen the chasis with stuff like subframe connectors and strut tower brace. Then you will want top of the line shocks all the way around and as far as lowering, 2 inches may be pushing it as your going to be bottoming out everywhere. If you must drop it. I say a inch at most.

Re: Suspension

well atleast i know the IRS route was a good idea but could an IRS system be custom built to handle 1500 hp? if it can could i go down a drag strip giving it my best? or will i have problems with the the rearend staying put? like will it bounce around and keep me from going straight?

UMIracing.com dont have any suspension stuff, just ls* engine stuff... :S
