Well, I have a stock suspension with a lil more than 60K miles on it.

I was looking at some LCA's to help with the 60 foot times. Should I get the relocation brackets too even though my car isn't lowered? I mean, by dropping the angle on the LCA's with a stock ride height, will I gain better control/traction/whatever with the LCA's dropped down?

Also, do SFC really help that much? i have a hard top and no squeaks.

Basically, I have no idea where to start on my suspension, but I want to be able to launch and maintain traction with my nitrous.

the lca and brackets are a great start for right now. i would stick with those.

not sure how much of an increase in stiffness you get with sfc on a hardtop. but i'd be willing to bet its one of those...you didn't know it was flexing...untill you get rid of the flex.

i know it was very noticable on my 99Z w/ ttops

Sounds good!! Thanks!

What about the relocation brackets? My car is stock height, no plan to change, and by dropping the angle or whatever...will that help me get more traction? Or is it detrimental/not worth the money??

I would do LCAs, panhard bar and SFCs for starters,and at least a polyurethane TA mount...I had relocation brackets on my 10 bolt with stock ride height and I got zero results with before and after 60' tests...Some people swear by them...I got nothing. Also when you get serious look into a cross brace mounted TA and start experimenting with negative pinion angles. I run 2.5 deg negative with no adverse effects on the street. Imho pinion angle is an often overlooked traction aide. My 12 bolt doesn't have the relocation brackets and it hooks in the 1.55 range to 60' with stock springs and stock Decarbon shocks and little 255 M/T ET radials...
