Looking to handle better, few questions.

Looking to handle better, few questions.
I would like to take time this winter and make my 97 z28 handle better. Do the ss cars have a stiffer spring rate and thicker sway bar than my z? I assume the ws6 cars do.
I love how the ws6 cars handle, should i just find that stuff used? Any suggestions?

The SS and WS6 cars arent a whole helluva lot better than stock. You can easily outhandle them with just a few parts...
Go HERE, and order an Eibach Pro Kit for $193, then KYB's or Bilstein HD's depending on what you can spend (I like the Bilsteins) for $229 - $308. Then go to Sam Strano's site and pick up a 35mm hollow front sway bar for $199. If you can afford it, grab a 19mm rear bar (22mm is too big and can cause understeer) also, but the front is the imporant one.
Of course there's always more you can do, but those 3 things will have you handling quite well, much better than anything SLP ever put on these cars.
If you are really serious about handling, just give Sam Strano a call at the number on that site and tell him what you're looking for....he's won his class multiple times at autocross Nationals so he knows his **** when it comes to F-Body handling. He'll set you up right...
Good luck...
