good suspension combo?

[Mr. Rustypwnz]

Im thinking of getting coil overs and a tubular k, along with upper/lowers along with some 4.10's and et streets, these damn ls1 guys running thier mouths around town's getting me pissed and I want to absolutely rape them out of the hole. They are only taking me by around 3 cars, and they usually take me 4 out of the hole..

I have old toyo's at the second with 4 banger springs in the front with very soft struts, the rear suspension is stock with 4 banger shocks. it hooks decent when I have good tires, however pretty much all I run is on the street becasue its the only car I have right now, and I want it to hook and leave hard!! We have a "closed course" witch hooks pretty decent.

so what would be a good combo for the suspension to dead hook at about 3k-4k on the street? Im only around 260-270hp maybe. So?

I know aliate x was doin good with some etstreets, i dont care I would ride on striaght slicks if I could lol...

Check out the MMR coilover kit on Corral right now for $149, hard to beat for such a quality product.

Et Street Radials = badass tires, I would buy the radials over the bias plys personally. Some people like the bias plys becuase they are able to take the "shock" of a manual car a little better but both will work amazingly well. Good luck.

cool ill have to check that out..

Im ready to eat me some catfish!!

Tubular k memeber, a arms coil overs, strange adjustables front and back, adjustable upper control arms and a antiroll bar. That has been proven to do some sick 60's. That what I'll be doing in a few months. Check out Team Z's K member kits, AJE is nice also and I know a few people that run UPR K members and love them.

E/T streets. M/T's hook hard. My buddy is cutting 1.5's with them.

oh I know. One of my friends has them and pulls the tires 2 feet in the air at the track with a 408w.

I know they are awesome, I just need to get em lol...

They are badass. I need to get some. My other friend but them in 15" for his welds....then sold them, got 17X9 03 Cobras with Goodyears...immediatley took those off for some 17" M/T's. He loves those tires. Search on craigslist. He found a pair with 3 passes on them (still like new) for 250. New are over 400.

 

[Mr. Rustypwnz]

yeah my buddy has a storage unit packed to the ceiling with them, all are used but they only have like 10 passes on em, and I think I could get a set for like free-$100

he pulls the tires with the radials, the et drags he ran a couple times and broke the diff, so he went to a spool lol..

 

[SVT32VDOHC]

Hell yeah, 100 bucks would be a steal. A guy has 4 by me and wants 400. I just want a friend to go in half with me so we can each have a pair. No bites....I still have to check with one more friend though.

you do need upper and lower control arms help mine hook and subframes help a little bit. i went with the steeda sport springs and shock/strut set up.

 

[Makdaddymac]

sorry to jack, but this is my next mod as well i'm just looking to get some traction out of first and 2nd again hehehe.....

someone was telling me about a kit that angles the pinion down? im sorry but i really don't know much about suspension. I figure something like that,some lowering springs on good new shocks and struts with some sub frame connectors would be a good start for me??

 

[bentley429]

You get adjustable control arms to adjust the pinion angle. Get the parts I suggested, you WONT have a problem hooking then.
