Im pissed off at my car right now, it launches worse than my FWD prelude.

Im running GAB 8 way adjustables, quite stiff right now, ES100tires and VLSD.

Ill try a 3000rpm launch, ill let out the clutch slow enough to avoid breaking the tires loose, but fast enough to not burn it. After it engages and i gas it, the tires hop like crazy.

Anyway to solve this? Is there any kind of a bracket i can weld up to stiffen the rear control arms? Less air in the tires, more air? Engine mounts etc?

What kinda times should i be pulling in the 60ft? 2500lbs, ES100's, KA-T?

lower your tire pressure and soften the rear

30 mins, not too long. just jack up the rear and start unbolting where the subframe spacer should go.

What exactly do they do? Replace the worn out bushings with a stiffer material? I am just trying to get the concept behind them.
