I would love one, but I'm not spending that much money I've heard the phantom grips are falling apart and I seriously can't afford a quaife dif. I could go turbo for that kinda dough.


Yes a true coil over like Tein is far better and much more adjustable. If you are sticking with a separate spring shock combo, go with Koni's and Eibach.

If you really want to do it right, do the energy suspension bushing set, pain in the arse to install but the amount of deflection taken away by going to poly urathane is going to really stiffen the ride and firm up the handling.

From there you get into custom products for suspension, like chromoly control arms to get rid of the flex there.

As far as limited slip, don't go phantom grip style, if you can't afford Quaife, we are going to be doing a Retrofit group buy (around the end of the month) and be a dealer/installer of the Retrofit limited slip conversion. It's a good cost effective solution to a $1200 differential.

Put a good wheel and tire combo and your suspension would be killer.
