In your opinion what should I do for my 2000 GA SE 4dr? It's decent right now but I would like it to sit alittle lower and handle better, right now it feel allitle loos around corners. Be specific, gimme brands and stuff, Im new to pontiac lol:lol:

Strut tower braces (can find on eBay)
Bigger sway bars (PFYC might still have the group buy on it)
Eibach or Sprint springs

Only if you hit the speed bumps/ramps/driveways straight-on. Once you drop the car you can't go perpendicular to anything, you have to angle your way up/down.

No problems with speed bumps. I can go over them anyway I want. I just go slow and never had it bottom out yet

Were they fairly new Sprints? Wait til you're sitting about 2" down when they settle.

Doesn't the rear suspension on SE's come as a torsion bar setup? A GT rear susepnsion setup would help out.

No. The suspension setup is the same for both SE and GT. In the case of the 1999-2005 models, the rear is an independent suspension design for both SE and GT.

Having done pretty much my entire suspension on my 2000 I would suggest the sway bars over all other mods. A drop with good struts would help a lot too though

Get the sway bars first they make a HUGE difference especially on a SE...get in on that group buy b/c the sway bars are hard to find they don't really make them anymore unless its a group buy

You can still find sway bars, and better then PFYC.com in my opinion. I am buying sway bars from these guys in the next week.
