So I am a bit of a suspension noob, looking forward to learning a lot with this car. I want to track the car a few times a year at HDPE events and starting to weigh my options. Car is not a DD, but I do take it to work on nice days. Couple of questions, any input is appreciated. 2015 GT PP, cat-back, CAI, and cosmetic mods only for now. Steeda rear shock mounts bought, but not yet on the car. Stock otherwise
1) So first off, do coilovers cure wheel hop? Seems obvious that they would help, but I am wondering if they would be a one stop fix due to the amount of movement/slop in the IRS.
2) I would like to spend in the $1-2k range for the suspension build which coilovers could easily take up the whole budget. For my goals should I skip coilovers and address the wheel hop, and look at bushings, bracing, shocks and springs, and stay on the lower end of the budget? I am new to HDPE so I know my skill has some catching up to do with what the stock PP setup can deliver, but I also see the upside to building something now that I can grow into.
3) If I went coilovers what else would you guys consider a minimum to address the rest of the suspension?
Thanks for the help :cheers:
