Looking for a good street/drag suspension that hooks. Not looking to spend major money for anything crazy, but the car is not a daily driver either. I already have UPR lower control arms, ET streets, and lakewood 50/50s to go in the rear...now someone share your knowledge to complete this set up...mods are in the sig.

I don't think Rick would recommend stuff that wouldn't work, Matt I'd definatly look into that stuff if I were buying suspension stuff.

Also add Eibach drag launch springs and subframe connectors.

If you run a anti-roll bar you must run springs that are the same rate of both sides, so you could not run the Drag Launch kit.

A stock rear spring, anti roll and a coil over up front is much better then the drag kit.

Do the drag launch springs have different rates?

Yes the rear drivers and passenger sides are different rates.

I used the kit with 70/30's, 50/50's for awhile with good results, now I would recommend the set-up I mentioned above so you an spend the money once and get adjustment.

Learn something new every day. I thought the only difference was the airbag. Thanks for correcting me.
