You could always do what BaggedGTP on www.clubgp.com did, go with an air-ride suspension.

That one guy is the only one I have seen with a lowered Grand Prix. He's got different wheels on a '89 which might be different suspension than a TGP. It sure would be nice to have a set up like that though. Drive around with it slightly lowered, park it and watch it drop to the ground. If I knew that this would out perform the original TGP suspension I would start saving now!

How much could you drop it, and any alignment problems? Or do you just bolt them in and drive?

Just a few more questions, What brand?How much?Through?Are rears easier to do than fronts?sorry,Thank You!

don't have em on this car but had em on my last but a car is a car.  also when i ran at the track I would just lower the front end, raise the rear, transfering the vehicle weight to the front wheels cutting down on weight transfer and wheelspin.  for now the only set up i have seen is from
www.fastfwdperformance.com/db.htm.  I have never checked ground control.
