[QUOTE="Bad Company, post: 17008164, member: 141815"] My thoughts would be to keep the GT500 and do some serious suspension modifications that will make the car feel much lighter and smaller to drive. The rear would be all CorTex Racing with either CorTex Xtreme Grip K-Member & Lower Control Arm Package or the Maximum Motorsports K-Member with stock Lower Control Arms with Ford Performance Mustang Competition Bushing Kit. Depending on how raw you want the car to feel you have the option of running the CorTex rear axle set up with spherical bearings with their K-Member or you could opt for the CorTex Street version in the rear with the MM K-Member and the Ford Competition Bushing Kit. I also would install the Ford lowering spring kit with an Eibach 36mm adjustable front sway bar with a stock rear bar Either of these two ideas will make the car feel a lot lighter and much more precise in response to your steering inputs. The car will not push and feel heavy when driven into a corner hard as it comes from the factory. It will feel neutral. The rear CorTex Torque Arm will have more traction that the stock rear 3 link suspension and will not allow the Instant Center to change as the suspension goes through its range of motion helping you to retain traction for the ability to use the extra Hp the GT500 produces as you exit the corner. The GT500 can be made to feel much smaller and lighter in a corner during aggressive driving with the proper modifications. How raw you want it to be depends on your decisions on which bearing or bushings you want to use to achieve the end result. [/QUOTE]
