? on front suspension
i just installed strange struts and 4 cylinder springs and took off my front sway bar....the car sits low in the front (like the front tires are inside the fender, there is some rub when i turn my car but it barely scrapes)
my ? is that i set the strange struts at three (at the three o'clock position) and that is supposed to be for drag racing...BUT when i was driving the car doesnt lift up at all. the car drives a lot smoother though
do u think that i should lower the back of the car to make a better weight transfer??

RE: ? on front suspension
set them all the way loose...
my front suspension is exactly like you just did... strange 10ways, 4banger springs, and no sway bar... stock rear suspension
this is what it should do with stock power when launching... btw this is slipping the clutch, not dumping it... so its not that hard of a launch

RE: ? on front suspension
hell, that shouldnt even matter much
yea that pic is on DRs, but it launches prty damn hard on street tires too... i had a guy in my car fri night and he swore i was lifting the wheel off the ground, lol... on street tires
and even just hard accelarating, you can watch the headlights dip hard btwn shifts, And jump way back up...
i think somethings wrong w. something... or your just expecting more from it....
does it launch like my car did in that pic? thats fully stock w. exhaust and a DR(i sprayed that run, but nitrous didnt kick in at the time of the pic
