Re: Need help to get setup..

For starters, lower control arms, panhard rod, and adjustable torque arm will all benefit your quest for traction. Also, subframe connectors will strengthen up the chassis. A good set of struts/shocks will also firm up your ride, both QA1 and Koni are good manufacturers of adjustable struts/shocks.

I would think you would want some sticky tires and maybe a rear control arm relocation bracket to make sure your planted. I would ask around in the "drag racing technique" forum. I'm sure there's a buttload of info in there.
