Suspension Setup
Last Tuesday I finally got to take my LX out for the first time and it was awesome...until the clutch decided to go out on me. So now Im doing gears and a new clutch and shocks/springs. What shocks/springs do you guys recommend for a street strip car? I only want to replace the springs on the rear and replace all 4 shocks, and I also dont want to lower the car. So which shocks/springs do you suggest? Thanks

RE: Suspension Setup
That is your foundation, very important, what are you using this car for, street, strip, bracket?
What size tires and rims are on the car, ( 215 225 17 )
You looking for a stiff but soft ride, or an all out corner buster, with the cost of some cushion?

It will see the dragstrip about once or twice a month
15x7 Rims with 225 street tires(switching to 255 ETs soon)
Handling doesnt matter much to me
Thanks for the reply

RE: Suspension Setup
Yea but my driver rear spring is busted so I obviously need new springs and I was just going to do shocks while I was at it. I wasnt sure what shocks/springs everyone is using now days (Ive been out of the drag racing "loop" for some time now and Im just starting to get back into it)Thanks

RE: Suspension Setup
heres what i suggest
budget... stock rear springs, 4cyl front springs, strange 10 way struts up front, cheap 3 way adjustables in the back, summit, or another off brand upper and lower control arms
not on a budget... eibach drag kit, or moroso drag springs(cut), strange 10 way struts all the way around, and some good controls arms
