Launch & 60' Tips/tricks/pointers?

[turbostang]

I've said it a million times before, the stock sway bar is garbage, and should be taken off anyways. The ARB is perfectly fine on the street, you just have to be mildly cautious about how you enter steep driveways.

ANY drag oriented suspension setup will be some sport of compromise for street-sanity. They will ALL make some sort of noise, some sort of non-stock discomfort, and some sort of sacrifice from stock. Live with it, or don't do it.

My own car, the one shown in the video, ran as my daily driver for a couple years with ALL of the stuff I'm recommending - including the ARB and NEVER had a single problem.

one word Wolfe

I've always heard to use Wolfe, Baseline or Team z. In that order.

I have nothing against any of them, but I like all the technical information offered by baselines website.

Is changing the upper c/a geometry worth it?

Is changing the upper c/a geometry worth it?

Yes and no. In your car, right now - it's likely not worth much, if any at all. For the records, I have AutoFab race cars suspension components on my car (well, sitting in a box, ready to go on). Mainly because my car will be REAL low now and it's tough to get instant center back to where you need it if you don't have a way to adjust control arm angle.

Your car should dead hook with out any of those changes

Why can't there be just one option?

I don't want to buy something and wish I had gotten something else later on.

I like the fancy upper control arm set up.

Ill guess ill get the $500 kit and add a ARB later on, 700-800 is a lot to drop right now.

There's nothing wrong with any of those kits, they are just made for different purposes.

The UPR kit I just took off of my car did fine and 60'd 1.26, but was on the car when it was slower @ 6.20's and did fine then too... that's a good kit for your car and is relatively cheap.

What about the pro launch 3 kit from baseline?

It's cheaper then the upr by a few bucks.

[91CoupeMike]

Ok, going with the pro launch 1 uca with the #1 LCA, solid bushings and spring perches.

$370. + 68$ track locator.

Ill add an ARB later, or is it important to have it all?

I to would suggest the UPR kit for the money. I went with UPR for my suspension parts as well...

Also the Pro Launch #3 kit states "This Package Is Not Recommended For Street Use." (if it matters to you)

I think because of solid bushings and ARB. Which is what they all say, it's not for granny's.

Yeah the UPR is a good deal but it's $6xx.

Guess my cheap side has its draw backs.

Champagne taste, beer budget.

quick question while we are talking about it, how are these kits going to effect cornering? is it going to suck even more?

what would be a good setup for making more turns?

Something solid with coil overs and a not so solid ARB, but stiffer than stock for sure.

That's mainly in your springs and shocks, I think...

Kenny brown or maximum motorsports.

I'd personally use Kenny brown.

I think if you got 4.10's you'd be ok. of course, then you would need axles.
