For straight line performance I would go with the lak-21900 ... although if the car is driven on the street and you like cornering as well I would get the Granatelli's with the spherical rod end.

Of course putting usable power to the ground and accerating outta the box is a bigger issue than just tampering with the lower control arms ...

To me, the Lakewood (lak-21900) look like they'll rip the torque boxes out of your car.

i'm putting Steeda upper / lowers on in 2 weeks.

Also, I've heard that the spherical rod ends are great...but they require special yearly maintenance. i.e. takeing them apart and cleaning or replacing

My setup

I run just the MAC upper and lower control arms.... when I race use ET Streets..
last time I went to the track I ran 1.6 60 foot times... which I think is pritty good with my stiff suspension... of Eibach Lowering Springs and KYB shocks.. no drag suspension at all.

Oh yeh and I just installed a set of Battle Boxes.. and love them man what a difference in the feel of the car!!


What kind of 60 foot times are u looking for?


Couple Pics of the boxes in...

If you can afford them and there down their already, it would not hurt at all.

i wish i had put them in a while ago and maybe i wouldn't be in this mess.

i can't see it being too much more since they'll have my rear suspension completely apart anyway.
