If you're on stock springs, that's the problem. The OEM springs sag after a few thousand miles. The only remedy is new springs.
Save 250 bucks and some pedders zero drop or 5/16 raise and your problem will be solved.

You could also add a set of drag bags. It will lift that *** up and give you a little something extra at the track. I have some on my other car and they got that *** up nice and perky!

Drag bags can be found here:

However, I agree with Kamauxx, get a pair of Pedders zero drop springs and do it right.

Why are drag bags redneck? They solve two issues: sagging springs and wheel hop. Many cars and trucks come with air ride suspension from the factory. Am I missing something? That's all drag bags really are!
If you go the new spring route, it sounds like you will need the drag bags anyways.
Did I mention that I am a redneck! :-)

I just replaced the system in my Ford (bad word I know) and it is identical to my firends drag bags that we installed last week. Now I am not saying that they serve the same purpose as drag bags, but they are the same thing from what I can tell.

If i put zero drops on my gto i have a 6spd and like u all know they like to axel hop. will those springs make it worse? I am looking for a problem fix cause i have 19" rims and when i get on it the fenders cut my side walls cause it suck down so bad.

Drag bags are a better option as 1. you don't have to ride around looking like your car is going to off road all the time 2. they better control wheel hop. I put in drag bags and keep them deflated except for when I track it. Get AirLift bags for the Mazda MPV and you can install them without cutting the bump stops off like they instruct with the "correct" bags. Cheaper too. I got Lovells 20mm drop springs which not only make the car look better but also DD ride well and improve handling by lowering the center of gravity.
