I found this article to be quite detailed. I learned a few things I did not know to say the least.

Most notible imo
1 - rear GT springs on GT / TRX are stiffer than even the Cobra R - should tell us something about its street worthiness when a purpose built corner carver is SOFTER
2 - front sway bars on same on 93 cobra R and the stiffest of the GT (85+) cars. Way stiffer than the 93 Cobra. Again consider this on the street!
3 - rear sway bar on 84.5+ GT special handling cars is same stiffness as the Cobra R and stiffer than TRX. Good grief!
So basically for a great handling street car ditch the rear sway bar, use the strongest front sway bar, and go to 4cyl LX springs.
The article discusses k-member and control arm revisions that impact spring leverage. So even for a road course car a stock kmember config cars the R spring rates may be too much
- neat article
