So I'm looking at the maximun grip kit for my 95 cobra convertiable. Its a daily driver that I plan on autocrossing. Can anyone think of a better kit with coild overs, K-member, and 3-piont rear end conversion? The maximun motorsports kit is VERY pricy!

Not unless you want to do a Grigg's front end with a SLA conversion...
If I where you stay with MM. When installing sus. you want to stay with quality parts. Besides you can start a PHB and TA along with LC's . Maybe do your sway bars. You get more for your money. You can always save for CO's and K later.

The main problem I see with doing that is those mods will put you in an EXTREMELY fast autocross class that will have an awful steep learning curve. If I could do it all over again I would leave my stock springs in and just go with a set of Koni yellows and sticky tires so that I could have started off in F stock, then once I had gotten good there I could have went to E Street Prepared with MM springs, MM full length subs, and an MM panhard bar. If you go beyond those parts (such as a tubular k or torque arm rear) you get bumped into C Prepared which is filled with purpose built race cars that a daily driven car will never compete with.
It is pricey but the install and fit is perfect and the end result is amazing. I have had the Max Grip Box for a few years now and put about 15K miles on it and it has worked perfectly..... just a plug for the MM stuff.
Ok, I guess I should elaborate. By autocross, I mean autobahn racing( I"m a soldier stationed in schweinfurt Germany) against European rice rockets! In the long straits I have no problems, but in the turns I'm getting killed!!
There is not much that would beat you in the turns with the MM Max Grip Box Kit.... it is a completely different car that would give anyting out there a run. You won't be dissapointed....
You are correct the rear is the real weak point in these cars... if you can't do it as a kit I would start there as well.... but if you can do the entire car at one time.
