I got a 90gt with dart 347 single turbo on a t56. Im trying to figure out the best option for lower arms for launch. Have wild rides upper mount and solid adjustable upr arms so what would match up with that the best? Control arms? Traction bars? And what are the pros and cons?

Where and how are you going to drive? A straight line drag is the most simple. (Poly bushings on a stiff lower arm, parallel to the ground). A road course needs something that will not bind like the drag race one might, and cruising is a whole other issue.

Drag is my main agenda and maybe rare occasion on the road. Did some research and was looking at the team z solid control arms. I already have solid upr adjustable uppers so not worried about a little noise etc. Just want the best thing for launch really. Don't wanna buy then have to upgrade later. The rest of the rear setup is stock Springs, strange shocks, wild ride upper mount plate and I'm planning on strengthening the lower mounts more (any suggestions on other components are welcome)
