I find this whole debate about handling very esoteric and amusing. 
Most drivers who push their car to the limits to explore the finer 
points in handling eventualy get into trouble so most wouldn't know 
what if any real improvements are to be gained by whatever way you 
change the springs or the height or the shocks. The Delorean can be 
more car in handling respects then most drivers can exploit. Even the 
stock setup is superior to most (90%) of the cars on the road from 
1980 even to now especially considering the price ranges of the cars 
some people have compared the Delorean to. Admitidly the acceleration 
could be improved but in the handling department there is little to
be 
gained and then only at the limits of driveabiliy where most drivers 
have no buisiness being. Change the static height if you must but
then 
you MUST have the car realighned. If you change the rear height and 
increase the angles on the half shafts you will work them harder ie 
they will bump more and wear out faster and transmit less power. As 
with anything in life there are always tradeoffs and compromises.
A customer once asked what it takes to go faster? The answer is
MONEY 
how much do you want to spend? The last little bit costs a whole lot 
more then the first 50%.
