We all spend so much time wondering what next to add on to our cars to add more hp...but what about planting that hp onto the ground? What's a good LSD? Who manufactures good axles? Anyone trying out the Z10 radius rods yet? What kind of slicks do you use? No slicks? What kind of tires? What's your suspension setup? Any tips? This is hybrid-wise, which is why I didn't post this in a suspension forum.

Ahhhh yes. That age old problem. You gots the horses now how do you make em work for ya?

What I have:

92 Hatch
B18C1 (totally stock)
Quaife LSD
Eibach Pro springs
Koni Yellows (set to about one turn stiff)
ITR rear bar
Energy suspension bushings
Skunk 2 camber arms
Z10 radius arms.

What do i consider the most worthwhile mods? Simple. The LSD and the Radius arms. followed closely by the springs and shocks. Everything else i could probably live without. The ITR bar is an important improvement but its strong medicine. I'm still not totally comfortable with how tail happy the car is but i'm getting better at pushing it without loosing it.

The wheels are stock GSR alloys with 205-50-15's I wouldn't go any larger than a 16" wheel if you are serious about road racing or AutoX. Tires are Pirelli P-700's Good for what they are but i'm getting a set of Kumho's in a week or two.

Hope my rambling helps

P.S. Axles are stock and thats all you ever need unless you are pushing some truely serious HP.

I am not liken the Kazz setup as I have seen them break alot. I only have personally ran factory Honda LSD and it seemed to work good. If you can get away with running Honda axles they would work the best. As for street legal drag radials Nitto 555R are the best 6/10 off the 1320 how is that for $250???

Stiffer motor mounts do the trick. I chirp 4th at the track with an ACT streetable setup.

BFG has a new cheater slick out that is much better than the NITTO as well as Mickey Thompson has a new cheater slick, but the the MT's are hard to get right now.

I would for sure go with the Quaife LSD, some 600lb coilovers in the front and about 1000lb in the rear. Also some type of adjustable shock/strut combo if your wallet can afford it. M&H make a great set of slicks. As far as axles go, the factory ones work pretty well until you reach a certain horsepower and then they start busting. There's a company in Florida called J&W Transmissions I think, that custom make their axles and there pretty reasonable considering other axle companies.
