Default would these components work good together

Eibach sportline lowering springs
HPM Mega Byte Jr's(rear lowers)
HPM subframe's(bolt-in then weld-in)
Koni's on all 4 corners
Eibach sway bars
im thinkin Steeda CC plates

anybody running this setup ?? Hows it handle ?? hows the roughness of the ride on the street ? AND, hows it hook ? cuz, right now my cars a daily driver, but, hopefully not forever. hopefully it'll be just a weekend warrior sometime soon. thanks

When compared to everything else, CC plates are inexpensive for the peace of mind. I'd use maximum motorsports or there is a guy around here who sells UPR plates at a good rate.

I simply put on a pro-kit and got CC plates just to be sure. Ya never know.

Sounds like a great setup. I would go with Maximum Motorsports CC plates.

Good Luck,

Matt

sounds like a good set up to me. although id go with the pro kit, they are a little softer and ride nicer. also better for drag racing

I wouldn't go with the lowering springs as they hurt the weight transfer ability of the chassis at the strip. I'd go with the Eibach drag springs, they ride pretty good at the strip and don't think they would be bad on the street, although I haven't been on the street with them since my car is strip only right now. the HPM control arms are good also, I've got them along with the adjustable uppers too.
don't know that I would replace the sway bars though, not much to be gained here except for street handling which might hurt at the strip. definitely get some subframe connectors they help lots both on the street and at the strip too.
