he's wondering if he could take out his suspension and replace it with a solid bar(solid suspension)... you could but it'd ride like ---- n chances are at higher speeds you'd crash. try it n post pics of ur outcome.

ya i figured at high speeds it would do that.But would like a little spring keep that from doing it.

that would be an insanely horrible ride. you would probably damage your frame from driving around like that. you are :S for wanting to do something like that

a grand...your smokin. find a cheap set of eibach coilovers (at least the sleeves) then go and get some very high spring rate for the rear and something moderate for the front (400) and throw that on some stock sturts and you have yourself a good budget suspension for dragracing. then once you get some more $$ upgrade the struts.

Jack the back of the car up and put rubber spacers in the rear coils for dragging, see how that works out.

if it was a track car then that would be fine to do. but not as a street car.
