Hello all! I have decided to trade my 2006 GT in on a 2011 GT as soon as I get my truck paid off. Which is soon. I plan on primarily using the car for a DD in the summer on nice days and autocross toy on the weekends with a mixed amount of Roadcoarse and Drag racing... I get around.. I know you can't really have a ideal setup for all three of those things but I have done some research and have a idea of where to start. I am open to any advice (please!) but I was planning the following;
Either:
A. FRPP Handling Package w/ Front/Rear Sways, Shocks,Struts and Springs. With Steeda PHB and PHB brace.
or
B. Koni "Yellows", Steeda Sport Springs, Steeda LCA's, Steeda PHB and PHB Brace.
The price is fairly close and I've heard the 2011 have a fairly massive OEM rear sway bar. So I'm not sure I "need" sways. I plan on making it to 8 Autocross events next season as well as a couple dozen trips to the strip and a few trips to Iowa Speedway in Newton for a "roadcoarse" event or two. Keep in mind I love going to the drag strip, but my main focus is autocross and roadcoarse. I plan on ordering the car fairly stripped with 6 speed manual, 3.73 gears and the Brembo package.
Any advice is appreciated.
