Sellyour subframes. They are waste for our cars unless you're into extreme road racing. Build your suspension. All control arms need to be replaced and if your lowered but the stock springs are better, BMR relocate brackets. Bogart 15x10 wheels with some really good stickies of your choice and pray for 10's.

Start researching a clutch package and save for a tranny.

Most important, ENJOY!

Everyone that has gotten the control arms says that they made no difference at all, I wanted the subframe connectors more for a piece of mind, i dont want to twist the frame during a launch.

I am however Very Confused on what kind of tires to use AT THE TRACK along with rims. right now i have on some goodyear 275/35/17 drag radials. Nothing to special, but would like to pick up a set of rims and tires for the track. Ive never really been good with tire knowledge so be specific! LOL

LCAs will make a huge difference, especially once you get a set of tires to hook up.
