Spec 7 springs, tokico blues and ST swaybar.

An equally important is the tire/wheel combo.

ground control coils

eibach springs

5 way adj tokico struts

just to add to what dave said, you need to really focus on upgrading the braking system with tii stuff. stock FB brakes are barely enough for stock FB power.

RB 175lb springs front and rear,Tokiko Blues,RB swaybars,all poly up front with some poly in the back.The widebody allows for more rubber than my current suspension is really up for in regards to handling,but traction under power is of equal concern with a boosted 1st gen.
