    Alright I was looking into my suspension and I was just doing some research about the best setup for my application. I am going to make my car a street use car so I can go to the strip and around time as well. What kind of setup or mods should I do for my 02 bird to help in the track but not be so bad on the street has well?

    Lower control arms would be a great start to help with traction and wheel hop. Lakewood makes great lcas (i have em) and they are by far the lowest price.

        Lca's and adj. rear shocks to start. lca's for wheel hop/traction and adj. rear shocks for weight tansfer at the track and handling on the street. these would be good starting points, then go from there.

          Better tires. Buy a couple extra wheels and swap at the track so they last longer.
