What are the cheapest ways to improve handling on a 95 Max? They must be under $100. Thanks.

 

Get a used set of aftermarket springs on the for sale forum and run them with your stock struts. It wont be too long before your stock struts blow, but thats probably the best way for improved handleing for under $100..

$100 dollars doesnt get you much these days.

Strut bar off ebay

 

Yup, I'm getting a strut bar off of eBay, but how about springs on eBay? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/95-96...QQcmdZViewItem Are those reliable? It says it can lower my car up to 4".

 

no
cheap and good/reliable dont go together

and dont listen to the advice about buying used springs to put on your stocks struts. how is blowing your struts out going to improve your handing?

spend some money and do it right

 

i would say sway bar... used

 

He is being sarcastic

 

Used RSB will do wonders on the stock setup.

 

I am going to have to go with...a used set of performance springs. This will give you the "biggest bang for the buck". A Front Strut Tower Bar will not even be noticeable.

But, with aftermarket springs, be preparred to spend some coin on new struts, VERY soon after.

 

Will a RSB do wonders on setups with true coilovers or some strut/spring combo?

 

put on 300 pounds and u might be able to add a slight drop to ur car. it defeatrs the purpose of weight reduction but youll be taking corners like a pro!! as a matter of fact...gain 400 pounds and u will be better! even better....do some research and read the stickies! they will help a lot,


as far as anything below $100.....u can get the complete tein coilover system. theyre the red ones with the blue sleeves on ebay. theyre magical!

 

Wonders? No. Change things, yes a bit.

 

ur evil.bad bad boy wiki...bad.

 

Get a better driver.

 

Under $100 without sacraficing any ride or comfort would be a front strut tower brace and new sway bar end link bushings. Make sure cold tire pressure is set correctly.

 

If one was to get sway bar end-link bushings, which should he go for? I've read here that OEM is better than the ES bushings in THIS case. Any truth to that?

 

OEM, ES, you'll never really notice a diff with just that small bushing. If you would go full ES, end links and main bushings you might feel a slight bit more anti sway up front.

 

i woudl suggest used sway bar, and fstb....i mean bump your price up to about 130 and you can get those.

 

i would get a front tower bar, and sway bar for the rear ..

 

how do u install a rsb? could i make my own strut brace? i've been told my struts are bad, and im kinda short on cash... what kind of struts could i buy that would be better than stock but not put me in never-ending debt? (im not trying to be the typical ricer still living at home with his parents at 25 b/c he blew all his money on car parts)

 

if u get the fstb read the thread where it tells u to jack up the front of your car then install the bar to put tension on it someone with search can prlly find it
