Gday im getting my car lowered in a few weeks and i was just wondering what is that best setup out there for a EL falcon. I want springs, shocks, camber kit and sway bars. I want it lowered about 50-60mm. Money isn't an issue so what is the best out there?

If money isnt an issue, $1000 per corner PROFLEX are a good start. I have Murrays details if you want some made.

No, thats for a good shock absorber only, you have to set up alot more than that.
Bars, springs, bushes, spring sizes/diameters etc.
What would you consider an expensive suspension set up?
