I am trying to get my suspension and brakes set-up on my 88' CRX Si before I do the motor swap (B18C5 with a GSR cable tranny with Quaife LSD). So far I have a Skunk2 Pro S full coilover set-up and Skunk2 lower control arms. What suspension mods do I need to get a good launch? I have been looking at traction bars etc... but want some advice before I purchase anything.

Thanks,

 

LSD, traction bars, stiff rear springs, and good tires all play a roll.
But they do nothing without skills. I've seen fools with all these parts get terrible 60'
Practice launching on a NON PUBLIC ROAD.
Depending on your skills and power, you might not need ALL these parts.........yet

 

I have pulled many 1.5 60ft's in my Mustang. I was also able to pull a 2.0 in my old 01' Cobra with IRS on the stock street tires.

I am not worried about skills i just want the hardware to hold up the abuse I will put it through.

Thanks for your reply,

 

i think he was leaning more towards how much power you are making not your skills as much, with a stock type r and gsr tranny there is not alot your going to gain as far as i know

 

It is not so much about gaining alot it is all about good consistant launches. My cars see lots of track time and I am in it to win it
