best set up for daily driver and occasional track
Hey guys i have a 94 z28 and I wanna know what the best setup would be for me. I want a low stance to make the car look good and i also want it to be tight so i can have confidence if i take a corner, the car is daily driven and i go to the track occasionally right now its bone stock but i plan on just doing all bolt ons hopefully to run low 13 possibly high 12's if that would be awesome but anyway let me know what you think would be best for me

lowering tends to hurt your launch ability.
but something like LCA and a torque arm will help both handling and launch.
a thicker front sway bar makes a HUGE difference in the corners, and you can always detatch one side for track duty
i'd look into some adjustable rear shocks...maybe Koni SA so you can soften them for the track and stiffen them for street.
but honestly...the biggest advantage you'll probably see is with tires. get some good street tires and a set of spare rims for DRs

RLCA is rear lower control arms those horizontal pieces near your rear wheels. good shocks and 35mm front swaybar is what you want now, though the bar is counter productive to drag racing it will make your turn in much better.
for lowering, the best is front adj coilover set up and rear adj weight jacker set up. both for around $500 and includes springs in any rate you want. with good tires it will feel like a completely diff car once you get the ride heights where yo want em

Check out the supporting vendors, most, if not all of them carry aftermarket suspension parts and can set you up.
