      I Think you should put those springs/shocks on the van.

        The van is getting custom Le Mans spec carbon fibre leaf springs off of the GT1 vettes.

            screw metal suspension components, I'm stepping up a notch to ceramic components.

              belated update on this thread. I installed the GC setup with 450/650 spring rates. Also replaced, control arms, links, tie rod ends and used treehouse cabs. I'm pretty happy with it. Drives great on the track and is not overly harsh on the NJ roads. I'm driving it a couple times a day to work and i'm ok with it. Of course I do like the ride to be stiff in my cars. And no fillings have fallen out of my mouth yet :)
