I'm not sure what's in the shopping cart for Summit Racing, but the other two links look fine to me. I'd recommend going a little beefier than the Festiva GR-2's if you're into racing or autocross though... there's information up on these forums for those options - none of which is a direct bolt-on.1988 Chevy Sprint Turbo 997cc

stiffer=better handling
softer= smoother ride
Larger wheels, and wider tires will help both of these-Greg

I wanna say they are 300 fronts and like 250 in back...... and they kill my back! I've since put in a 4000 watt syste. So the weight in the back helps a lot! And I'm running gr-2 struts. in that video I was running 205-60-14 bfg drags in the front and stock 12's in the rear so that's partly why the rear hopped so bad lol

I have 175 front 150 rear 8" springs with coilover sleeves/collars on KYB GR-2's. Handling is great... very smooth, comfortable, but performance driven. I'm just updating my build thread right now with how slammed it is... check back there in like 10 minutes. I also have a few other suspension mods, but the shocks and springs are the big part of that performance haha.1988 Chevy Sprint Turbo 997cc
