well if you want your car to handle like a porche then you shouldnt have bought those springs and kyb struts. You should have went with the coilovers from mantapart instead. Also you can use an older cadallac parts and put them on, since the caddy axle is 36mm compared to the GA's 30mm, plus they have a more heavy duty front wheel bearing.

If you interested in the caddy swap go here

:lol:

Seriously though, we have no driveshafts, its FWD..... even if we did it doesnt really help suspension at all. I'm not sure what you mean by rocker arms considering they have nothing to do with the suspension. No aftermarket ball joints I'm aware of and I think RSM and Mantapart have the only aftermarket polyurethane bushings

"performance" ball joints?

I'm sorry buddy but if you want something that handles and ride like a Porsche, get a Porsche. Your GA is at least twice the weight of a Porsche, you could cut it in half and try to work from there...

I think you need to do a LOT of reading to get to a point where you'll actually know what can or can't be done and how to do it.

Well welll, thanks for your advice people, and gimli you absolutely right, my car aint hadling like a porche cause of the weight, but i atleast want it to handle like the europeance luxurys, My dad owns a 04 ben amg, the thing can tun on a rap of 40 km, e can do 120 and not roll. thats impressive, so thats what got me to buy these springs, until i found out that benz had air suspensions.

Unless I'm missing something there's nothing there for the Grand Am. Although I know thier universal sway bar bushings will fit. I'd like to find some affordable control arm, trailing arm bushings, etc.:)

what coilovers does mantapart have? The reason im asking is because I too want my car to handle extremely well. That said, im pretty much sold on either the eibach or intrax lowering springs and I want a shock/strut that will tighten up my ride but not make it so stiff that its a pain in the ass to drive on anything but perfectly smooth surfaces. I was looking at the kyb-gr2's but from what ive heard, they are kinda entry level in performance struts.

My mistake guys, mantapart.com and I think I just fell in love. They have everythign ive ever wanted! Booya!.. sorry.. hehe. its like I just had all my dreams come true. ;)
