There's a bunch of choices out there, but you can run very competitively with a simple and fairly low cost package.
The Hotchkis Front springs and the Bilstein shocks work great together.
NOVA on the Track

That car performs very well, is successful autocrosser, and didn’t break the bank for the build.
Our leaf springs and sway bars will perform just as well as a triangulated 4 link for a fraction of the price. I'm sure you've seen posts about Mary Pozzi. That is a leaf sprung car, running the same spring rates as the Nova springs.

02-08-2010 #2I can say from the experience of owning your front and rear springs that they are fantastic and they rode very comfortably, unfortunately i never put up the money to get the bilsteins and really see them for their potential. I already sold them to a buddy of mine but i promote you guys as much as possible because i was very impressed
. I'm going with the triangulated 4 link for the performance but also for the fabrication of it as well, kind of the i want to "show off that i built my own suspension" thought, not trying to be cocky or anything there but its more for me than anything kind of having that satisfaction for myself. I was hellbent on doing coilovers for the front as well but i think i should stick with true coils and shocks. I may still go with your bilstein shocks though, haven't figured that one out yet.
