Spohn LCA Relocation Brackets
Installed my set yesterday. Very easy and straightforward! Only needed help from my buddy with some welding. Lemme tell you, what little spin I had off the line is now virtually gone.....these little buggers work wonders!
Pro: much better acceleration from a stop
Con: Little bit rougher ride, but that is definitely to be expected!

There was a guy in another thread about LCA brackets who said they didn't help, actually he said on intial launch they helped, but after that the car wouldn't sit down and you'd need really sticky tires to really benefit it. I think that was the first time I had heard anyone say they dind't like them. Any other opinons.

I know Im in the minority here, but they made no difference at all in my times. Ive argued with many members about this issue, I seem to be the only one who regrets buying them.

The whole point is to keep the rear of the car from sitting down or "squating". When the rear of the car squats the angle of the LCAS has the rear end lifting up off the ground causing more wheel spin.
If you install them, make sure you drive on one bolt hole around the block then look at the angle. If the angle from the rearend to the frame is pointing up, you're golden.
If it's pointing downward "Rearend higher than frame mount" then you need to go on the next bolt hole down. If you were already on the bottom bold. You need to replace your rear springs :O)
I'm on my bottom bolt and just barely got the angle right. Me need some new springs.
BTW It made a huge difference in traction to the point that the car feels slower cause I don't spin all the time with my 3000RPM stall! Woot! Time to get better than a 2.0 60ft

your car is awesome, i love the pic in your sig. I really like the Y2K rims on it, I want to see those rims on a T/A, preferably a white T/A
