Drag racing suspension setup

Drag racing suspension setup

Right now im on a tight budget since my trany and T-case needs an overhaul so I went with T-basic so I can lower the car a lil for looks. I want to also keep my entire tire on the ground (0), will I need camber plates to do this if I lower the car?


My main concern is weight right now so id like to get some input on what other components I could change to save some weight. I know I can go with the AMS brakes but they aren't in my budget at the moment so I was wondering what rear sway bars and rear strut tower braces weigh the least.

Also what sub frame brace replace factory ones and weigh less.

And has anyone cut out the rear floor and reinforced the rear section of the car and saved a decent amount of weight?

I'm sorry if this has already been covered but I did search and found nothing.

Contact 9sec9/OKIX - they have been working with DB and Indy Evo to develop a drag setup. I believe DB has a package for it if you call them.

You can re-spring them. I would still contact them on it.
