hey guys. getting back into the straight line stuff.
atm i have heavy duty billstein suspension.

they have a bit of squat in them when launching. is this good? mates have told me that this squat actually helps traction.

i only ask because i was thinking of grabbing some drag suspension...but they are hard muthers that do not squat.

so. is my billstien stuff good...or is the rock hard drag suspension the go?

cheers thumbsup.gif

a certain amount of squat is good, but not soo much that the shocks bottom out. the idea is transferring the weight onto the tyres (squat) which aids traction. the longer the vehicle squats the better. i'd suggest getting your rear wheel alignment sorted with some positive camber considering R33's have IRS.

i'd suggest keeping the bilsteins, get the vehicle corner weighted, then get them revalved for drag spec from bilstein themselves (sydney).
