Did LCAs help your traction that much?

I just can't seem to get off the line well at all. Even with Nitto DRs I still seem to either bog it down or light up the tires. I dont want to ride the clutch a lot either. So much question is how much did LCAs help your traction? What about a TA or subframes? Thanks

i sympathise with ya, i got an auto so its easy. The only way with a 6 speed to get good 60ft times is either do it or dont do it at all approach. Et streets, strong rearend, good clutch, and high rpm clutch drops. just my .02 . Prorac1

I had a big problem with tire spin so I tried an airbag in the rear coil springs, works real good and only cost ~$40.

airbags would def help imo... u can set it so even at 600rwhp u can launch it right, cuz its FULLY adjustable

my friend has them, and instead of only 1 on the right side, he has 1 on the left side too but i dunno why :P i guess he makes that side alot firmer or something

look a little more than halfway down on that page. It's called the Airlift Airbag Set.

Well I don't know if your car is lowered but relocating brackets will help. If it is you will enjoy the new found ride quailty you missed fromlowering it
