NEED TRACTION
I need help in the traction department. Getting ready to go to the track and I've been praticing launching the car off the line. The problem is that the car just wants to spin first three gears before catching. I've trying to feather the clutch but not helping. Minus street slicks what are the best springs and control arms on the market to help the situation. I currently have nitto 555 285-45-17 tires.

RE: NEED TRACTION
um i think steeda has some drag springs that are pretty nice. they ride terrivle but if it helps you hook then i doesnt matter. i have a very similar set-up as you but i have n20 instead of boost. you should prob go with a wider tire too and whats your beef with drag radials????

RE: NEED TRACTION
From my understanding, the only springs that wil really help out your situation is drag springs. Any other afetrmarket spring is stiffer and shorter than the stock spring which will allow for less weight transfer to the rear during launch which will actually hurt you launch. So, I would either stick with the stockers and a nice set of conrtol arms, maybe even step up to adjustable CA's (but they get complex trying to figure out exactly where to set them for optimum launch, I would just stick with the Granatellis), or get drag springs. I know the Eibach's are good.
