Hi All,
I am considering giving autocross, driving schools, and track days a try. I have a few questions in regards to the suspension. I have a 99 6 speed coupe with the standard (FE1) suspension. I think I would like to upgrade the suspension to the F51 or FE4 (Z06) suspension. What all would I need to purchase (sway bars, shocks, etc.) to make this upgrade? How much would this cost and where should I look to get the parts?
Second part of my question is will this upgrade allow me to stay in the stock class (SS) in Solo II? I would assume that it would considering that these were factory options? Also are there any other type shocks that you autoxers would recommend? I believe, if I am understanding the rules correctly, that you can change shocks in the stock class as long as they are no more than 2-way adjustable. Is this correct?
Lastly since I am a beginner should I even bother with this or just take my car out as it is now and then make these changes later when my driving skills improve.
Thanks in advance,
Chris
