    If you heat them up properly they hook just fine..but they need a good long burnout.

    Definitely 275's (nitto only) on the stock rim...like everyone says, nittos' run narrow. They look PERFECT!

    Going to install Gears! cost and ?? 3.73's or 4.10's ????

    If memory serves me it was 104'ish...couldn't tell you the exact RPM but still had room. Normally I pay a lot more attention but had a wedding to go to that afternoon so I just made some quick shake down passes to make sure I wouldn't have to shift to 5th.

    Going to the track sunday...

    Found this somewhere, some time ago. Just copied up to this point. My one piece of advice is not to worry about your reaction time, it has no bearing on your ET....Good Luck and post up the times/slips when you get back. Since this is for beginners, I will assume you are on street tires. DO...

    No burnout required. Just drive around the water box and light em up long enough to dust em off. I don't know, I guess like you're showing off at a traffic light or something.

    They are different. Put them on the front and just run your stock rears until you get the ones you want. I drove that way for 6 months...

    Are lca's hard to install for a novice installer

    Well then, it’s not too difficult a job. Get the back of the car supported on jack stands and remove the rear wheels, disconnect the E Brake lines where they mount to the sway bar, unbolt the rear sway bar, disconnect the shocks at the LCA, put a floor jack under the LCA where it supports the...

    Are lca's hard to install for a novice installer

    I completely understand. Do you have isolators on the car right now? That would help some if you don't.

    Nitto dr555 275/40

    17 psi for the DR's...don't forget to bump the front tires up to 45 psi or so....

    1/4 question

    Heat those DR's up real nice and considering how much you spun before, you should be able to knock off a half second or more. I went from a 13.5 to a 13.08 with just the addition of the Nitto's! What were your previous 60 ft times? A lot of improvement can come just from practice alone...
