Suspension Set-ups

I am coming into some money and was planning on upgrading my suspension. I would like to get a full coil-over suspension. I plan on 1/4m racing more than track or autoX. What's everyone else's suspension set-ups?

I think this was originally posted in the 3rd gen section.

I'm looking for someone that has the HKS suspension set-up but haven't had any luck on this forum. I'm hoping to get the HKS Drag Suspension. No one has any opinions or info?

Not too many FD's end up as drag cars, most use them for track use or autocross.

I would try Rotary Performance in Garland, TX (rx7.com), or contact Steve Kan at gothamracing.com or e-mail steve@gothamracing.com.

Both companies have drag cars they sponsor.

I wouldn't buy any suspension components, until I've done plenty of research on the subject. Refer to Carroll Smith's Tune To Win series of books on suspension tuning.
