you will LOVE what the ats spindles do for the handling... i can only recomend at watts link in the back..... coulovers in the front really arent the greatest for a g-body inless you get the lower control arms with dropped coilover mount SC&C are selling, you will end up with a stupidly short coilover that while cool looking dont do much for handling... id go with a good spring and shock instead .. and wellcome btw
