Okay, so that setup is good for handling (cornering) but it will actually hurt your 60-foot times. That is to say, the stock shocks/struts/springs would 60-foot better than that stiff suspension you're running. Again, those parts are great for cornering, but if you want better 60-foot times, we need to be looking at Strange 10-way adjustable shocks & struts, Eibach drag springs, UPR control arms... etc.
I ran 12.91 @ 103.7 in my '89 LX with the bone stock motor and basically just DR's and UPR suspension.

Do you know if they have suspension kits that balance drag racing and handling? The car is a daily driver and I do love going 30 around a round about and sliding out of my seat while the car is glued to the ground. And I found the eibach drag springs and it seems like they aren't too good for daily driving and don't lower the car. I like the stance of my car so id need to find springs that wont jack up my back end.
Ive also been considering a small shot of nitrous. 75-100. If you've got any insight on that it'd be great

Anyway, I can set you up with a combination that works well for drag and handling. Obviously, it'll be a compromise for both, but vastly superior to stock. If you PM me your phone number, I'll call you and discuss a few different options. Just make sure you allow for about 30 minutes or so to cover the bases.

That's weird. The link works for me.
