The handling is greatly helped by the Jamex 2'+ lowering kit with a set of KYB shocks, struts and quads, subframe connectors, offset aluminum rack bushings, caster and camber plates (dialed at -3 camber and +5 caster). The rear end alignment is done thanks to a set of upper adjustable control arms and MAC lowers. I also installed urethane bushings... well pretty much everywhere (spring insulators, end link, control arms, A-arms, sway bars, tranny...). The front end also benefits from revised control arms: I'm using some Motorsports pieces that are designed on the 1999 front control arms; sharper turns, better handling, you get it all!
The braking is greatly improved by the Cobra 13' and rear cross-drilled rotors as well as the Carbon Metallic brake pads (nasty for the rims!!!!).
