I just put on Firehawk Front struts and 300lb springs.
Ride is firm but fine on the street…In the rear I have the stock 86 T Bars and
Bilstein HD shocks…Too Soft… Has anyone ever run the Firehawk suspension?
380/150 front struts and the 400/200 rear shocks ?

That's what I ran on my car for the last 4 years. With the front slightly lowered and 250lb srpings, the back at stock ride height, it made a reasonably well balanced setup for DE's.

Go for the matching rear shocks, you'll love it. They are better suited for the fronts than the Bilstein HD's. Its what I have for my 951 and I've run it on other 951's as well.

Finaly some feedback on the Firehawk set-up!! Everytime I have asked I get no response from anyone. Zuba, glad to see you enjoy it so far, and it makes me feel a lot better about the purchase in the future.

You are not going to believe this.
I have a set of rear only Firehawks with 80 minutes at LRP on them only.
I have only the rears.
Shoot me a pm, if you want.

I ran the firehawk valved fronts with 400lb hypercoils and the escort cup rears with 200 lb helpers and it was great even on the street - this with 245/45/16's

+1 on the Firehawk/Escort combo with helper springs.
