I have a lot of suspension adjustments to make and a slightly worn transmission/ clutch that are not making things easy. This was my 4th pass with the car and actually caught a decent 60' time of 1.6 but the nose came down a little hard/ fast so lost some speed I think. Managed a 11.83 @ 125.57mph with some really slow shifts since my trans/ clutch seem to wana fight every shift. Ill be sending the trans off this winter to RPM but for this season wana enjoy the car. I think with the right adjustments, shifts, and possibly a WOT box I can get this car really moving and deep in the 10's. Also the car will be turned up once the trans and clutch are done to 16lbs or so so we will see what power that brings. I am new to the suspension set up game so any advice would be great. Pretty much everything is DA and running SA qa1 coilovers up front and SA strange shocks out back.

I keep a good fire extinguisher inside and in the garage near both my modified 4th gens. Cheap insurance especially on the road.

Car seems to want to smoke upon stopping and if the nose is downhill so in the process of installing a turbowerx scavenge pump. Using the stock air pump location and modifying its bracket to mount the scavenge. Hit a snag due to not having enough -10 lines in the garage long enough for what I need but will get the last line made and installed this week.
