Hello again lads!

I have recently bought a 4g63t for my 1989 Galant GSR (bargain price too) but I was speaking with some friends and they say that because the car is a FWD and the engine is meant for an AWD I will need some godly suspension to compensate for the power of the engine or something...

I have the stock GSR shocks and springs right now and people of suggested coil overs (I like the sound of it) but I'd just like to know what you guys suggest? Like brands and prices and such.

I don't really know much about suspension but I am keen to learn! :)

Same as k. I'm using my stock (but lowered springs) suspension. And it'll help with the extra weight. But cool overs are a great upgrade. I've just ordered mine. Main reason is because my wheels scrub do want more camber. Also because I'm now awd I want it alot stiffer

If I am to put this 4g63t engine in, how much power am I expecting to have? Is it 200hp roughly? More to the point, would it be a death trap or anything?
