Down and in.

Traction bars? You mean people still use them on our cars?

I like that style setup which is basicly like the honda boys. But in all reality they are not needed on our cars. Honda guys use them due to their suspension design and setup. The lower control arm allows a lot of flex. We have a much better lower control arm setup and with aftermarket bushings you will not get much movement if any during even hard acceleration.

I might still be interested depending on the price but I was not planning on using any as I havent seen the need to yet.

After all that, why would you even consider them???

Because they wont hurt anything and I like to support members in the community who take the time to make things for our vehicles.

While I still believe they are not necessary and there are many other more important things you can do to get traction, they will not hurt and could help if your still using stock lower control arm bushings.

you are kinda wrong bud...our control arms DO flex, and there is room for improvement, i made a different style set for my white car back in the day and there was a very noticeable difference...car went from 2.0 60's to consistant 1.7's and then i played with tires pressure and the suspension and got it down to 1.6's...im going for 1.5 1.4's

and i have oem control arms with ES bushing and a set of O.E.M. tubular control arms with derlin bushings...going to try both
