My LCA relocation experience

First off, J&M left the instructions out again so i had to play with it a bit to figure it out. I set them on the lowest setting with stock ride height except for worn out parts. It felt real weird and my rear end would sway a lot. I got a lot better launches but if i was not dead straight it would almost spin me out. I then set it at the one higher and the corners and rear felt almost like usual. I was able to average 1/4 to 1/2 sec off my 0-60 runs. I did at least 10 runs each way and i never had one run that was near the stock setting. It's a pretty cheap way to cut my times down and took less than a hour to change even with no instructions.

What are the worn out pats you mentioned. Everyone I have asked says that the car feels no different regardless of what holes are used with respect to normal driving.

I never drive normal unless i have my grandmother with me. I am able to make quick back and fourth motions with the steering wheel and the rear would is very solid. On the bottom setting it felt like my daily driver and the rear would feel sloopy. The shocks and springs are origional with 100K miles so i assume they are in need of replacing with the Bilstein lowering set.
