Also keep in mind that new LCAs is one of the best handling/traction mods that you can make on these cars. Adding LCAs by themselves (even without lowering) will give you better handling and traction.

RE: lowering
If I understand this correctly you should either use adjustable LCA's OR an LCA relocation bracket right? I don't fully understand the LCA arrangement yet but, I would assume that this is one-or-the-other not both, correct?
I ask because there is a BMR lowering package that includes springs, CA brackets (I assume they are LCA brackets), adj. PHR, camber bolts and upper strut mounts. I assumed you could use the brackets in lieu of new adj. LCA's.
This appears to be a cheap route to go because I know most of you guys would suggest Tokico's and new LCA's but, is this a good budget package?
Or...should I just buy all the components separately, buy Eibachs (instead of BMR) and add the Tokico's and LCA's (I'd also like to know what are the recommended LCA's)?

RE: lowering
Discalaimer.... This is what I understand about the rear traction.
The LCA relocation bracket is a bracket that lowers the mounting point of the LCA on the axle end. This allows for the downward angle of the LCA even after the car has been lowered. The downward angle is what makes alot of the traction.
Search for posts by CrazyAl. He explains this very well.
