Default my new cadillac

my new cadillac is a 1979 Seville. It's going to be my project car, since I'd like to make it a true sleeper. Mostly, however, for a great freeway cruiser, street cruiser. This is going to be a change for me though, since I am used to tuners that ride like go-karts. My previous car was an 02 Subaru WRX that could handle roughly 1.5 G's around corners....

The big difference for me though will be having a true engine. The Boxer-4 is a strong, torque-ee engine. However, there is nothing like a V-8. So, the new car for me, given to my dad and I is a Cadillac Seville, 1979. I'll be posting updates hopefully as I go.

Since Cadillac is new for me, and not the usual build, if anyone can point me in the direction of websites for parts, performance upgrades, etc. I need to start gathering the info quickly.

A couple of cars in this site have done what you want to do.
take a look and see what they did.
specially the suspension.
