I know there's going to be flamming about this, but i need better traction on the street. What else besides 36-way adjustable coilovers, traction bars, and solid control arm bushings would help this? I know I could get DR's, just seeing other options.

By the way, i'm pushing about 430 to the wheels

That will help. Also a set of wider rims and tires will give you nice benefits. A nice set of 17x7.5 or 8 inch rims.:thumb:

I'm around your power level and all I have is IPP 36way c/o, solid trans/motor mounts and shitty ass REVITUP traction bars. I spin in 4th. But I use slicks at the track where it matters to me. Once I have the extra money I'm gonna get a set of rims and tires and call it a day.

Yeah I saw your post on TST. Its running but my pcm is fried. I'm picking up another one tomorrow but I can't find any local dealerships to flash it for me. So I won't have it in time for the weekend.:cry:

True but if you know how to feather out your clutch a bit you can really minimize spin even with stock rims and tires.:cool:
