Having a broke hand means i cant do alot..or drive my car ..so its time for car parts wishlists!

trying to figure out a streetable setup capable of 1.6's or lower. is the spring rate too soft? who makes good control arms?

boduke... are your goals STRICTLY 1/4 mile or do you want good DD handling for twisties and such?

I've got UPR UCA/LCA's (sphericals) being installed this week along with a baseline ARB and steeda FLSFC's. I'm hoping to hit the track next tuesday, I'll let you know what I'm cutting with my nittos.

do u want to b able to cut 1.6 all day even on the street or just at the track? i have adjustable tokico shocks/ struts and tokico spirng that lowered the car 1 1/4 plus upr upper and lower controle arms. with mickey thompson street slicks mounted on v6 wheels i cuz a 1.77 60 my first time at the track with them on the motor. im pretty sure i can get that to a low 1.7...but when i do more suspension mods im gona do strage 10way adjustable so i can set it for the track and the street. im real happy with my upr uppers and lowers and i would hope the strage shocks/struts will help a little more so that would b a decent set up for you right there....strage shocks/struts, upr upper and lowers, set of good tires and im not sure what springs but im sure that right there would get u damn close to a 1.6 60ft

Then just about any aftermarket LCA will be fine, but would recommend something heavy duty as it will hold up better on long-term launching. You are gonna want adjustable UCA's to address pinion angle, but would recommend a spherical end on each LCA/UCA if you have ANY thoughts on improved handling. They can only help your launches, but will degrade cornering without them.

As for springs/shocks.... have no idea, as I a quarner guy

springs.... do fox 4cyl up front and stockers in the rear... if ur doing coilovers, do a 165-14 spring up front.... stock rear

If you want the ultimate setup, do coilovers, and get double adjustable shocks for the rear so you can adjust rebound and compression separately. Your talking about a serious investment at that point, though. Ripping the front sway bar off never hurts either.

would h&r supersports work for the rear? theyre pretty stiff, maybe too stiff though i think itsa 250-300 progressive rate.
