Your question is ambiguous at best and obviously members may not reply either here or at Grand Prix.

For example with Regals there is a base suspension system and the GT (Grand Touring) package. IMO the GM cars with the best factory tuned suspensions where GM actually put some effort into it for overall ride and handling is the Grand Prix.

I think a lot of them were basically the same. I know that some Grand Prix guys go after the springs from the Intrigue because I believe they are slightly stiffer.


What exactly are you trying to do? or wanting to do?

I think some GP's like the GXP, GTP... Impalla and for some reason I am thinking of the complete suspension from an Impalla 9C1...

As with Hoov I am interested in what you are wanting to do..
