I'm going to need some help guys. I put this kit on my car about 3months ago. Since i put it on i can't hook for anything. I practice all the time trying to get off the line with them but its not happening.

When i do a burn out i can't even leave tire marks till i let off the gas slowly shift and it will leave a little mark. My car in the back doesn't have that much weight to begin with but the main problem is those springs. They have very little to almost not weight transfer.

I don't feel like doing suspension again this summer, meaning take out the springs, shocks, and struts. Is there anything you guys recommand i should get to hook off the line better? I'm gettin some 315 Drag soon do you thing they will help much. What do you guys think or some control arms?

What are you 60ft timing with these springs that you guys have?

You're never going to hook very well with those springs. They are extremely stiff and have no weight transfer. You need to get the weight to the back wheels.

Damn it!!! I can't race anyone off the line its pissin me off. On the highway when i floor it i'm like a bullit because there is no weight transfer. If all races were off a 70-80 roll i would be fine. Even if i floor it on the street going 50 miles i start spinning its so stupid. Chicago streets are very dirty too and with those springs i ride on the dirt.

I should have just went with coil overs.

just go with fox body springs. they will lower your car just as much as sportlines and the weight transfer is great!

bingo, control arms will help, but those springs will hinder you no matter what.

I got all 4 of mine for about $100. Buy them used. Get front springs out of a 4cyl fox body and get rear springs out of a V8 fox body.
